Meet Happy Hub Collective

Shiloh Blondel is the heart and soul behind creative workshop concept, Happy Hub Collective. 

After wedging her first lump of clay, pottery became the catalyst for Shiloh to rediscover a sense of mindfulness and form lifelong friendships.

Transformed by a community of likeminded makers, it's Shiloh’s mission to build connection through clay and guide others on their creative journeys. Now offering a range of workshops that encourage mindful making over a glass of bubbles, Happy Hub Collective is founded on the belief that art is best when shared.

The first thing I ever made…

“Was a noodle bowl! And I took about two days to make it because I was enjoying the process so much that I didn’t want it to end.”

I’m on a mission to…

“Promote good by peace and tranquillity. Our philosophy at Happy Hub Collective is that creativity and community are our superpowers. Community is the foundation that supports us, nourishes us, and offers us unconditional love. Through the creation of this business, I have been about to continue to expand this community, using creativity as a vehicle.”

When I’m working with clay, I…

“Am forced to surrender to the creative process. Pottery can’t be rushed or created from a “thinking” place. Working with clay is expansive and not bound by time and it always feels a little mystical to me!”

Teaching others has taught me…

“That we are all creative beings; we all have our own process and style, and our personalities are always reflected in our approach and end product! I love watching the same set of instructions manifest with such incredible diversity. My student’s pieces are always so different. You wouldn’t believe that we had all been in the same class!”
