About the studio

Leera is a ceramics workshop that offers courses for beginners as well as those with more experience. At the studio you will learn the basic techniques and apply them. We offer courses in Swedish, Finnish and English.

We offer a space where you can express your creativity, experimentation and practise your problem-solving skills. Working with clay is calming and relaxing - but also stimulating. Clay work gives you energy!

Contact us if you want to customise a course for yourself and friends, e.g. a party, hen party or TYKY. We also arrange courses for groups with special needs, these courses are fund-financed.

The founders of the studio are Julia Aminoff-Tatsis and Maria Sundell. We are both ceramic artisans and ceramics is our passion! We have long dreamed of being able to work with clay and at the same time share our passion with others. That dream has now come true.
