Social Distance Gallery will be posting BFA and MFA thesis exhibitions that are canceled or limited in access due to the COVID-19 pandemic. The digital exhibitions will be hosted on Instagram at @socialdistancegallery
Here is what we need from you:
Gather all of the students in a show. There are hundreds of exhibitions being canceled and posting shows as a group will make things a little smoother. I understand it might be difficult to gather everything from everyone. These are unprecedented times, and this is a one-person operation. Please help me out by gathering all the info before sending it to me. Thanks and stay well.
Take and send multiple photos of the installation. Try to get photos that showcase the whole space. If the show is not being installed, you can skip this step.
Send up to 3 documentation photos of works for each student exhibiting. Please edit the photos so the color and light are correct. Please send files in .jpg format. Name each file with artists name, and image number (Example: JaneDoe_1.jpg) Along with each image, please include the following:
Name of institution
Is this a BFA or MFA thesis exhibition
Title of exhibition (if applicable)
Artists name / corresponding image number (example: JaneDoe_1.jpg or JaneDoe_2.jpg)
Title of work
Medium / size / date
Artists Instagram handle (if applicable)
Send all material to [email protected]

In light of the reality that many of our colleagues are scrambling to create online learning for their ceramics students, Studio Potter is offering a three-month free membership to ceramic departments or your school library. Our archive of over 8,000 pages of content will be accessable to professors and their students, and it is an excellent resource for remote ceramic education.
Any university or educational center affected by COVID-19 is eligible for the free three month membership. All students and faculty will access the journal under one log in for the three month period.
If you would like to take advantage of this offer, please have a faculty or staff member of your organization email Jess Detweiler at [email protected]. We will set up one account for each group. Include the following information in your email:
1. Your name
2. Your organization’s name
3. The email address you would like associated with the log in
4. Estimated number of students that will access the journal through this log in
Furthermore, we encourage you to give your students a writing assignment – Create an article for Studio Potter. You screen the submissions and send your top three to Jill Foote-Hutton at [email protected] for consideration. Selected student authors will be published on studiopotter.org and will receive a one year membership to Studio Potter.
Need some some suggestions for how to use Studio Potter as an educational resource? Look no further! Check out there blog update HERE.
Studio Potter remains committed to supporting our ceramics community. If you would like to help support our efforts, please donate to us today.
