Your Teacher

Sarah has been working with clay for over 20 years, full time as a teacher and potter for 12 years. Sarah originally started her career within the corporate world, soon discovering pottery as an after-hours passion, exploring her creativity. She found that ‘throwing’ pottery on a wheel gave her great satisfaction and relaxation. After some time, Sarah made the decision to shift her professional career from an office life ~ to pursue her passion for pottery and tableware.


Sarah worked and studied Ceramics at Ballarat University, where she developed her bold –yet incredibly organic style.

Sarah has been truly humbled by her successful career as a full-time artist and now wishes to teach others and provide an enjoyable, relaxed environment to learn and create.

Sarah’s motto; Love, create and inspire.

Sarah is a great teacher, lovely person and runs a fabulous studio. Classes are warm, welcoming and very collaborative with classmates inspiring and helping each other. I’ve been coming to classes at this studio for 2.5 years and really love it. If you are considering a pottery studio to start your pottery journey I highly recommend Sarah Schembri Ceramics in Fitzroy.
