Mighty Mud is a unique, urban ceramic centric studio, our almost 10,000 square foot facility includes: 22 artist studios with 40+ local artist renting space in those studios and an average of 500 students per year. Mighty Mud has a gallery, an exhibition space, and a weekly presence at the Saturday Farmers Market. We have 16 electric wheels, glaze lab, 3 indoor electric kilns, proposed Wood kiln, Gas reduction kiln, slab rollers, extruders, documentation (photo booth) area, coming soon spray booth, large outdoor area. Mighty Mud’s artist-in-residence program provides a unique opportunity for artists to work in a collaborative community of artists.
Artists-in-Residence are encouraged to develop their existing bodies of work and explore new processes and concepts, and will be encourage to do monthly critiques with members. The residency allows artists to shape and structure their time to fit their own goals. Residents spend some of their time working as a studio technician and retail operations. They also will have opportunities to teach their own classes. Special consideration will be granted to applicants who have operated and/or helped construct wood or soda kilns. Mighty Mud plans to build a wood kiln during the 2018/19 residency and the resident will be highly involved in the process. https://mightymud.com/air/
