the pioneer project
Our community is full of talented artists, crafters, and musicians who make a living doing what they love. About twice a week, students have the unique opportunity to try their hands in an assortment of media making functional pieces they then take home, ranging from fiber arts, to metal smithing, to working with clay.
All activities are dependent upon season, student interest, and instructor availability.
