Really excited about this one! Been working all summer to build this out, and am so grateful to the Center for Craft for supporting this project to bring weird clay experiments to queer and trans folks in LA… I recommend folks to apply for their Craft Futures Fund, there are still a few rounds left!
“This project creates a clay education network of queer community members, in order to break the isolation of COVID-19 by building kinship with and through clay experimentation. Scaling a project framework I developed this Spring, I have pivoted to working with queer artists to develop dynamic lessons to directly engage queer folks with raw clay craft in their homes. With your support, this project will reach 90 queer individuals in the Los Angeles area with free clay kits, unique monthly lessons, and a monthly digital “soft blobs” happy hour.”
