Community Space

A Ware Community Space is a membership based space for creators, in Bangalore, India. It is designed to bring together like minded creators with common values and mindsets who, while creating beautiful art & craft independently, could engage meaningfully and intently in a collaborative and creative environment with other creators alongside.

We envision members of the community to experience camaraderie and fearlessly tap into the strength in interdependence.

A Ware Community Space will work best for potters with prior experience working with clay.

Community Guidelines

To keep our environment safe, inclusive, and welcoming, we have two questions that we request community members reflect upon when working and being in our space. Please help us create an environment where everyone is able to show up as their whole selves.

Am I bring respectful, kind, open, non-judgemental?
- A Ware Community Space strives to create a welcoming and supportive community for every individual who walks in our door.
- Racism, sexism, transphobia, homophobia, xenophobia, bullying, elitism, harassment, or violence of any kind is strictly prohibited.

Am I taking up too much space?
 - Disruptive behavior that distracts or disturbs others from making art is not tolerated.
- Be mindful and considerate of other members’ space and working time; if you usually take up more space than others, please practice making space for others.
- Clean up your workspace thoroughly, including the wheel, table, tools, floor, ware boards, etc. Leave the studio cleaner than you found it /or at least as you found it.
- Please take phone conversations outside of the shared work area.

- Clean up any mugs / dishes that you use during the day and keep it back in its place before you leave.
