Keramikkfamilien is a family-run ceramic studio and creative meeting place in Alta, welcoming guests who wish to explore materials, craftsmanship and creative processes. Here, hands, earth and fire come together to create something lasting. Through the use of clay and natural materials from the surrounding area, you can take a small part of Alta home with you.
Keramikkfamilien is a vibrant ceramic studio and creative meeting place in Alta. Run by a family passionate about form, materials and craftsmanship. Inspired by the Arctic landscape – mountains, light, sea and seasons – they create handmade ceramics that combine functionality, aesthetics and a strong sense of local identity.
Experimentation with local raw materials is a key part of their practice. Clay and minerals gathered from the surrounding area are used to develop unique glazes and surfaces, allowing nature itself to leave its mark on each piece. Every object becomes a dialogue between human hands and the unpredictable character of the landscape.
In addition to production, Keramikkfamilien offers workshops and creative experiences for visitors. Guests can try wheel throwing, ceramic painting or take part in creative sessions, suitable for both beginners and experienced makers. The studio also offers memberships and workspace for those who wish to work more independently with ceramics.
A visit to Keramikkfamilien offers an authentic encounter with local craftsmanship, creativity and Arctic life.
