Our Mission:
“Byrdie’s Pottery, a non-profit organization rooted in the New Orleans community, is committed to providing equitable access to ceramic arts, offering educational programming, and creating a platform for makers to share their work.”
Updated January 2023
We donate 20% of Byrdie’s sales revenue each month to a different (usually local) organization doing important social justice, harm reduction, and/or equity work.
