Ceramic School in Palermo

Here, ceramics becomes a shared language, between experimentation and encounter

Studio MUD is Palermo’s home for contemporary ceramics: an open place where material, people, and visions meet and give life to new forms.
In the ancient heart of Palermo, the studio hosts resident artists, courses for every level, and co-working stations, turning learning into exchange and technique into language.

Here we design, experiment, and grow together: from row clay to the final finish, every gesture invites you to slow down, listen to the material, and build shared beauty.

Whether you’re starting from scratch or refining your skills, you’ll find a well-finished, professional, and welcoming environment where you can shape authentic ideas, with calm, care, and plenty of creativity.

Mud Experience was a wonderful gift, not to mention a wonderful experience, allowing me to unplug from my daily routine and completely relax.
Clay... a world unknown to me that, thanks to the professionalism and dedication of masters Valeria and Alessandro, thrilled and enchanted me immensely.
Kneading the clay, working it on the wheel, and then decorating it was a magical moment, one I absolutely recommend trying.

A friendly and peaceful corner. A lovely place to spend time with friends, drawing inspiration from the works on display and the colors available. Highly recommended.

We had such a great time at Studio Mud! We did the Sit and Paint and loved it!! We just texted Alessandro and could come the next day. Then we got a brief introduction how to use the colors. We felt very welcome!

Couldn’t recommend Studio Mud more. 10/10 recommend this incredible ceramics studio more. I came to Palermo for this. To learn wheel throwing with the owner and master ceramicist Alessandro. I spent 5 days learning techniques with him 1:1, two hours a day — took the afternoons for a lazy lunch and exploring the city and sights — and back to the studio for coworking and practice.

The studio is bright and beautiful and welcoming. Have a coffee, a Nutella biscuit, put on your apron, and get to playing.

Highly recommend taking 1:1 courses or workshops here (or both!). Whether you’re on holiday or you live here. Whether you’re a beginner or expert, you will learn something new and feel right at home. Bravo bravo bravo for this beautiful space you’ve created. Thank you so much Alessandro and team 🤍

Wow! Unforgettable experience! We had a first introductory lesson and I must say it was really amazing. Not only thanks to the patience given our inexperience, but also for the welcome and the calm and creative atmosphere of the entire studio. Super!!

Thanks to Alessandro, we had a wonderful experience creating our first pottery pieces. His teaching style is both highly skilled and incredibly supportive, making the entire process enjoyable and accessible. We’re truly grateful to have met him, not only for his guidance but for the inspiring atmosphere he creates. It’s clear that he genuinely loves what he does and that passion shines through in every part of the workshop. A truly special place led by a truly special person.
