“Variety is the Spice of Life”: Student and Community Exhibition @sfclayworks

It's that time of year again in the studio at sfclayworks when we get busy with some of our annual events.

This years theme, "Variety is the Spice of Life",  is very broad so you should expect to see a good "variety" of work. Our studio members always manage to turn out some pretty amazing pieces, which we are very excited about. The exhibit is open to all sfclayworks members. The exhibition offers studio members an opportunity to very work hard at putting together something special. We can't wait to see what the community has in store for the show. Please join our Students and Community [...]

Outside of her busy day to day responsibilities, Jee finds time to slip into the studio and get lost in her meticulously carved porcelain pieces.

Seasoned Living: Ceramic Works of Marcia Rosser

It is 2016 and already five years since we all took the plunge to create sfclayworks. It has always been a desire of ours to have an active gallery space in the front of the studio. We are pleased to announce that besides our Annual Student and Community show, our SF Open Studio Show, and our yearly guest artist show, we are finally making that happen. When we started tossing around the idea for our new plan, we had the difficult task of figuring out who we wanted to showcase during our first display.

Throughout the years we have watched Marcia move from making pottery predominately thrown on the wheel, to her fantastical salt [...]
