The Clay Studio's video: Clay at Home: The Clay Studio National Virtual Opening with Artist Talks

Please join us for the official virtual opening of The Clay Studio National 2020, our biannual exhibition showcasing the exciting range of ceramic artwork being made in the U.S. today. In this Zoom event, Curator Jennifer Zwilling will give a live tour of the gallery at The Clay Studio, and we'll hear from some of the artists who will talk about their work: Aaron Caldwell, Eliza Au, Sasha Reibstein, Trisha Kyner, Kimberly Camp, George Rodriguez. The Clay Studio serves artists in the community and its community with art. We were founded in 1974 by a group of 5 ceramic artists seeking a shared space and mutual support, but they soon realized their work embraced something broader: to educate and engage the larger community with the joy of making in clay. Today The Clay Studio supports 65 Resident and Associate artists and welcomes 4,700 students in their classrooms every year, while also serving 3,800 schoolchildren and adults in the Philadelphia area. We offer classes and workshops year round in handbuilding, wheel-throwing, casting and glazing, for people of all ages, from beginner to advanced. These online how-to demos are tutorials created by ceramic artists that anyone can do at home. They celebrate the idea that homemade is handmade, and they connect artists with people right where they live. Enjoy!
