Clay Fellowship, 3 - 6 consecutive weeks
Clay fellowships are awarded through a jury process. Fellows are partially subsidized to receive on-site housing and unlimited access to the studio. In addition to working on their own projects, artists can pay fellowship fees through an exchange, potters who will make 50 glazed bowls or 100 bisque bowls will receive a 50% discount off the fellowship fee (i.e. the bowls plus $200 will cover a two-week residency). Bowls made during the residency will be used in our annual fundraiser.

Ceramic Internship, 2 months
This internship is designed specifically for young artists interested in functional ceramics.
The Ceramics Intern works closely with WSW’s Clay Program Coordinator preparing for our Annual Chili Bowl Fundraiser. During this mid-winter event, WSW warms up our local community by presenting over 800 hand made vessels for sale. The bowls and tumblers are filled with chili, cornbread, and lemonade donated by area restaurants. The revenue from this community event goes into the ceramics program to buy and maintain equipment and subsidize fellowships.The Ceramics Intern has access to WSW studios in their non-working time and is encouraged to create work. This opportunity also offers a private room in a neighboring house and a stipend of $300/month
Residency Dates: January - February 2009
