The
Clay Studio of Missoula is a non-profit facility nestled
in the mountainous region of Montana USA. Five students, who
graduated from the University of Montana, established the facility
eight years ago 'to expand and further develop the explorations
of clay'. They set up children and adult classes in order to
generate funds to acquire equipment and pay the rent.
The Clay Studio of Missoula's goals are to provide a quality
work environment for all levels of clay artists made affordable
through group sharing, to provide high level personal instruction
for those starting out or those with particular inquiry, and
to offer work space for the more mature artist who may not be
able to afford the high costs of a private studio.
Four years ago Jayson Lawfer was brought on board as the Executive
Director. During that time Jayson established an artist-in-residence
program, an internship with the local university, built
an internationally known exhibition space, and set up many workshops
and juried shows.
