Potter | Teacher | Artist
Sia Eliza Hoyt is a functional potter and teacher with deep roots in traditional craft and design. Trained through immersive apprenticeships with renowned ceramicists Dan Vito (Fireborn Studios) and John Bogard (Planet X Pottery), and as a Resident Artist at Touchstone Center for Crafts, she has worked in wood, gas, and electric firing, co-founded two pottery studios, and developed apprenticeship programs for young makers. From her home studio, she creates wheel-thrown stoneware inspired by the landscapes and elements she loves, merging form and function to bring beauty, connection, and a sense of grounding into everyday life.
