“Women ceramicists, she said, struggled for recognition, not only because they were female artists, but also because their chosen medium wasn’t as accepted [as fine art] as it is today.
The struggles of women ceramicists over the last four decades, she said, have opened up opportunities — unavailable to/for women in the past — for a new, rising group of female and female-identifying artists.”

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.
