Ceramic Explosion & New Staff Extraordinaire!

The "Ceramics Dinnerware" class just wrapped up after 8 weeks of non-stop pottery-making! Featured here (L to R) students: Brian Sherburne, Rick Skoog, Ann Ward, Jeff Stark and Bridget Nies. Each student had their own advanced projects in mind - from creating bowls to look like stones to an alter set for a local church to a set of matching dishes as a present for the potter's spouse. This talented group produced large quantities of high quality work - a true Ceramic Explosion in our clay studio!

Next up, a 4-week class, "Spring Clay" and then in June "Play with Clay" will run for 6-weeks and be co-taught by Joan Farnam and Ann Ward. We are excited to see all the fabulous work produced in the upcoming weeks. (There is still space available in "Play with Clay" don't miss this great opportunity to be mentored by both Joan and Ann.

In other Art Colony news, we have a fabulous new staff member! Gary Atwood is joining us for the summer to get out the word about everything going on at GMAC! Gary brings years of marketing and design experience as well as a trained artistic eye. We are delighted to welcome him to the team and hope you get a chance to meet him.

Hope all is well with you out there, we hope to see you soon at the Colony.
