About

Laura Wiegand was a passionate potter in her youth, getting her start at Cleveland Potters Co-Op and apprenticing with an amazing local potter, Sheila Tarshis. As a pandemic gift to herself (after an unintentional 25-year hiatus from ceramics of any kind) Laura bought a wheel and some tools and set up a little studio in a sun room off the back of her house. As throwing pots began to feel natural again and the little studio became a beloved and productive retreat - and because we all love puns and potty humor around here - Thrown Room was born.
