Inspirations Studio is a ceramics-based program for marginalized women.

The members of the Inspirations Studio have been impacted by poverty, trauma, homelessness, mental and physical health and/or addictions. The studio’s core mission is to facilitate improvements in members’ lives through the making and selling of pottery. Through creative, therapeutic and skill building work, women gain a sense of self-confidence, dignity and stability, a connection with community, supplemental income and a new way to engage with the world as makers.

Inspirations Studio is supported by the Trustee and mentorship program of The Neighbourhood Group/St. Stephens’s Community House.

Inspirations Studio is closed due to covid 19
