Slip Studio is a small ceramic studio located in White Plains, NY. Ariella teaches weekly classes and workshops, as well as creates her own work out of this studio. Space is limited to two large work tables, a Skutt electric kiln, two pottery wheels, a slab roller, a wall extruder, and a separate glazing room.

Slip Studio is an extension of Ariella’s long gone home studio. Her studio doors are opening to the public in hopes of creating a welcoming place for like-minded artists, a calmly space, a welcoming hub for food and pottery lovers. A place for mindful art practice.
