Holiday
Market.
Shop handmade ceramics, meet the artists behind them, and spend a little time making something of your own. Our holiday market is a chance to see Studio Sumi at its most creative.

LOCAL ♡
Sunday at the studio
Come for the pottery.
Stay for a little making.
For one day, we’re opening up the studio to celebrate the people who make here. Browse one-of-a-kind work by Studio Sumi members and local artists, find gifts with a little more personality, and see what goes on inside our neighborhood pottery studio. Come with a shopping list or just a little curiosity—we’d love to have you.
Shop local artists
Browse ceramics made by our members and fellow local artists, each bringing their own style, colors, and ideas to the table. Whether you’re looking for a thoughtful gift or something for your own home, this is a chance to find pieces that feel personal.
Free holiday ornament bar
Take a break from browsing and paint a ceramic ornament. The Ornament Bar is free, with optional donations, and open to everyone. No pottery experience or ticket is needed—just stop by and join in the fun.
Tour the studio
Ever walked by and wondered what happens in here? Come look around, meet our community, and learn how handbuilding works. We’ll show you the space and share more about our workshops, memberships, and other ways to get involved.
A little thank-you
We’ll have free tote bags with a purchase, while supplies last. It’s our way of saying thanks for supporting local artists—and a handy way to carry home your new find.
The makers
Made here.
Made by hand.
Our members all work a little differently, and that’s what makes browsing their ceramics so interesting. You’ll find different shapes, surfaces, glazes, and ideas—pieces made for everyday use alongside more decorative work. Each one reflects the hands and imagination of the person who made it. Whether you’re shopping for someone else or picking a piece to keep, it’s special to know who made it.
Make something festive
Stop by the
ornament bar.
Come paint a ceramic ornament with us while you’re visiting the market. The Ornament Bar is free, with optional donations, and open to everyone. No pottery experience or ticket is needed—just drop in anytime from 11am–4pm.

A peek behind the shelves
New to Studio Sumi?
Come say hello.
We’re a community ceramics studio in San Francisco’s Inner Richmond, with a special focus on handbuilding—making pottery by shaping clay with your hands and simple tools, rather than using a pottery wheel. It’s approachable, creative, and one of our favorite ways to slow down and make something useful or unexpected.
More than a place to shop.
During the market, you can get a feel for the space where our classes and members make their work. If you’ve been curious about taking a workshop, joining the studio, or finding a creative activity for someone in your life, this is a good time to ask questions and see what we’re all about.
