Adamah is a gallery and studio located in the Short North Arts District of Columbus, Ohio.

Specializing in three dimensional work made from clay, the gallery features a wide variety of ceramicists – from local to international, functional to decorative.

As a hybrid gallery and studio, Adamah also hosts working artists and offers wheel-throwing classes to students interested in learning how to create pottery on the potter’s wheel.

Founded by Joshua Schottenstein, the space aims to highlight artwork originating from the ground, or Adamah.
