FOUND + MADE Exhibition @sfclayworks

On October 14, 2022 we reached a new milestone when we celebrated the reopening of the Front Office Gallery at sfclayworks. Under the direction of studio artist Leigh Barbier, the studio held its first post-pandemic gallery show and opening that helped bring our ceramics community back together. The show theme Found + Made was based on the idea of making something in clay based on an object we found in our daily life; this concept offered our studio artists a chance to explore ideas that perhaps were outside of their usual working  style.  Here are a few images from the FOUND + MADE Exhibition, and the opening party. So nice to be able to gather together  again and celebrate our amazing clay community.  Pieces [...]
