“I took pottery class in high school and am thrilled to be back in the studio here at Material Things. It’s a wonderful space full of welcoming people and great teachers! I have also developed a love for candle making, so most of my pottery gets turned into candles.”
Today is the day! Join us this afternoon as we open up our space for the Gateway Arts Open Studios. Meet some of our amazing teachers, see works produced by students and catch some live demos!
