residency
Explore Jingdezhen together for schools, universities, and creative collectives. Work side by side in shared studios, join optional custom classes and cultural outings, and create lasting projects together or as a group.
Our group programme
Spend four immersive weeks in Jingdezhen discovering Chinese culture and pottery. Designed for international ceramics students on summer or winter break, the program blends studio practice with cultural exploration to deepen skills and understanding.
WEEK 1

Studio days include model and mould making, a blue-and-white workshop, custom stamp making, and the first round of glazing and firing, plus visits to Linglong porcelain factory, Sanbao, museums, and local studios.
WEEK 2
From porcelain to overglaze
Explore Jingdezhen’s antique market, learn slip-casting and porcelain-tile making, and experiment with overglaze decoration. A one-day trip to Yaoli deepens insight into traditional clay sources and firing culture.

Refinement & Sharing
Continue studio work, refine and decorate pieces, and prepare for the final glaze and firing. Group sharing and optional excursions round out the creative exchange.
