Founded in 2018, Lalita’s Ceramic Studio is a community of artists and students working side-by-side in a friendly environment that encourages and inspires artistic growth. We believe everyone has an artist inside them, looking to express himself and we want to help you find your artistic voice. Each and every one of our artists has experience in the studio and in the classroom meaning you get not only teachers with great art technique, but also great teaching technique too. Studio rentals and educational programs are also available upon request with prior reservation. Please get in touch today to learn more about our offerings.

About Lalita

PGD in Fine Arts from Elam (UOA)

Bacholor degree in Fine arts from Minzu University In China

Worked for Auckland Art Gallery for many years in NZ, but also worked long time in different areas before I came to NZ. I’m currently a full-time flight attendant, as aviation is one of my childhood dreams.

I always want to provide a kiln service for artists around me, because I found it’s so hard to find a kiln firing service when I tried to make some ceramics before I bought my kiln.
