Summer residency with invited artist Robin DuPont
A three-year apprenticeship with a studio potter, as well as a research trip and several work-studies in Canada, U.S.A, Australia and Korea, residencies at the Banff Centre for the Arts, Red Deer College, and the building and firing of many different wood kilns also contribute to the depth of his experience in the field. His employment experience has been as an adjunct faculty member teaching introductory clay at the post secondary level as well as six years experience as a ceramics technician. Robin also spent four years building and maintaining a studio practice out of his home in Nelson, British Columbia, Canada.
Summer Residency This is our largest residency of the year with up to forteen artists sharing our large 12,000 sq ft studio. There is a palpable excitement in the air as this diverse group of artists bring a variety of concepts, skills and techniques together for a month of intense ceramic exploration. Deadline for registrations is April 15th. Application fee is $25. Visit medalta.org/miair for more information.
Workshop with Cathi Jefferson August 6-16th
For the first three days of the workshop, Cathi will lead a hands-on seminar on the specifics of making pots for our salt and soda kilns. Types of clay, slips and terra siggilattas will be discussed in conjunction with different forming methods.
The middle five days of the workshop will leave the students to work independently with guidance from the Historic Clay District’s Artistic Director Aaron Nelson. After this period of creative exploration, Cathi will return for the final three days to teach various glazing techniques as well as the firing of the salt and soda kilns.
