Grounded By Designs

Grounded By Designs is an Intentional, eco-conscious ceramics studio and workshop space based in Carrington, Newcastle. We offer a welcoming space to slow down, get creative and connect through clay. Nestled within MOA & co the studio invites visitors to experience the joy of handmade ceramics through guided workshops and relaxed, self-directed studio sessions.

Founded by local photographer Myf Garven, Grounded By Designs celebrates sustainability, intentional craftsmanship and the everyday ritual of making. Whether you're visiting for a guided workshop like Coffee & Claytime, where you'll hand-build your own vessel, or popping in for a casual Play with Clay studio session, there's an experience to suit all skill levels and interests.

You can also explore Paint Your Piece, where you choose a handmade bisque-fired piece and decorate it with your own design. All offerings focus on creativity without the pressure of perfection, making it ideal for locals, visitors, and small group gatherings alike.

Drop in during MOA & co's open hours or book online. Whether you're after a mindful solo session or planning a special celebration, Grounded By Designs offers something beautifully hands-on, grounded in community and made to be enjoyed.
