There are exciting programming changes happening over at Community Kiln! Starting September 1st, 2026, Community Kiln will be under the ownership of Hopkinton Center for the Arts (HCA).
HCA is committed to ensuring Community Kiln continues to thrive as the creative home for so many ceramic artists. They have reached out to students and teachers to understand what is important about our studio and are working to ensure those things don't change while setting the studio up for success and future growth.
Yes, Community Kiln will remain in its location at 46 Park Street in Framingham. In the future we anticipate room to expand within our building and potentially beyond our space. For the first year of programming under the HCA no changes will be made within the space while we continue to reevaluate the program and regain stability.
Fall 2026 registration will be conducted through the HCA. Students are now eligible to become an HCA member to have one week of early access to class registration. An “Insider Plus” membership cost $150/year and members receive several other benefits including a 5% discount on classes, 10% off the HCA gift shop and free or discounted admission to over 1,000 museums.

Oversize Pots:
Greenware pots that are larger than 12" in any direction (including diagonal) require an oversize pot fee. Pots over 15" in any direction are not allowed and will not be fired. The fee is calculated as...
Height x Width x Length (in inches) x .05 = Oversize Fee (in dollars)
13in x 3in x 5in x .05 = $9.75
Notes: A calculated fee below $5 becomes $5. Pots shorter than 2" should be calculated using 2" as the height.
To pay the firing fee, you must email the office at communitykiln@smoc.org. This fee includes both firings. Your piece will then receive a receipt to be placed with the item. Lost receipt? Send us an email and we’ll print another. Items without receipts and items over 15” will not be fired.
Oversized bisqueware stamped with a date before 2026 will have until May 1st, 2026 to be glazed and fired. No pots over 15 inches will be fired after May 1st, 2026. We appreciate your understanding.
