About
The Clay Studio's Resident Artist Program supports emerging ceramic artists from the US and abroad with a personal studio of about 185–195 square feet, kiln use, a stocked glaze area, paid teaching, grant-writing and curatorial support, group shows and a solo exhibition after 24 months. Residents may stay up to three years. Housing is not provided and residents must live in the greater Philadelphia area.
Under a Windgate Foundation grant the $200 monthly programme fee has been waived and a $250 monthly fellowship stipend paid; residents cover materials and firing.
