Starting next week, we’re switching the roles of our two ceramics studios:
Studio One—our larger space with more wheels, more shelving, and more room to move—will now host intermediate and advanced classes.
Studio Two becomes the new home for beginning wheel and introductory ceramics.

Under the leadership of Scott McClellan, and with the strength of our outstanding ceramics instructors, more students are sticking with it—coming back quarter after quarter, making bigger pots, more ambitious sculpture, and serious progress.
This swap gives the growing edge of the program the space it needs to stretch out. It’s a practical move with a clear intention: to support more adventurous work, sharper skills, and a stronger community of makers.
It’s also the next step toward something big: Our ceramics certificate program launches Fall 2025.
Same studios. New momentum. We’re just getting started.

Day 29 of our 30 Day Challenge was to transcribe a scene from a favorite movie or TV show. Some artists listed the shows they illustrated, some didn’t. Enjoy! This was posted as an infinity loop movie. Very clever! This was the second to last day of the challenge! Did you know this 30 Day …
What happens when paper is treated as a raw material, instead of a flat white rectangle? The photograph to the left is one that’s been circulating on the internet lately. This is what happens when wasps are given colored construction paper. The paper is used as fibers and pulp, not ready for pencil lines to represent an …
