Looking for a temp ceramic studio in Gowanus area


I am not quite ready to rent a space full time yet but I am looking for a ceramics studio in Gowanus (or any nearby neighborhood) to do some experimental projects; porcelain slip casting, and firing (cone 5-8) on an hourly basis + firing fees. If anyone you know is open to this arrangement, please email me at tse.jac@gmail.com

Thank you so much in advance for your time!

Best,
Jacqueline

Chantel Woodman will be giving a talk about her work:

Chantel Woodman is a Cape Town based artist-designer, with a multidisciplinary 
background in design, metal smiting and sculpture – a diverse skill set, which has 
culminated in a unique and experimental approach to ceramics.
Woodman started her career as a jewellery designer in 2003.  In 2008 she was 
introduced to sculpting by renowned local Cape Town artist Stefan Blom, whom 
helped develop her skills and gave her the tools to express her love for figure and 
form.

Chantel’s work has been selected as part of ‘World Design Capital 2014’ ‘Month Of 
Ceramics’.  She has also exhibited through Galleries and Design shows such as 
Southern Guild, Bronze Age, Ebony Gallery as well as Glaugair Berlin, Germany.  
Chantel is currently in New York City for her latest show, in collaboration with 
artist, Frans Smit - ‘New Africa, South York’.

I draw inspiration from my immediate surroundings of urban design and modern 
architecture, simultaneously testing the boundaries of material sensitivities with a 
playful engagement of various metals and clay discovering the tension between 
the visible and invisible.  The process is inquisitive and unique.

Teaching Job Open in Yonkers NY

Sent to Tony Moore

Hi Tony,


I'm wondering if you know of anyone in the lower Westchester / Bronx area
who may looking for pottery work. In particular, I'm looking to add a
teacher or two in the very near future. If you know of anyone interested,
I'm open to the possibility of compensating with studio space.

Thanks for your time.
