Workforce Development Program

Our Workforce Development Program for BIPOC artists and individuals from low-income backgrounds seeking to start a career in the arts. We will provide tailored mentorship, skill-building workshops, and resources to empower participants to pursue their artistic passions and thrive in a new career. We work on catalyzing personal growth and economic empowerment but also foster diversity and inclusion within the arts community, enriching our cultural landscape for future generations.

Apprenticeship

This summer, we're offering an apprenticeship to BIPOC artists eager to explore their heritage and express themselves through the medium of ceramics. We will provide education on traditional clay practices, such as foraging clay and wood-firing, promoting environmental consciousness in the ceramics field.
