As every artist knows, it takes a wide variety of skills to successfully create fine art. Ceramists are no exception; the most successful of us can wear the hat of chemist or contractor as easily as that of a kiln technician, photographer, or graphic designer. These hats represent the tools we need to enable the most control over our final product and how it is perceived in the marketplace. With ceramics itself, there is always something new to learn, and while this is an invigorating aspect of our material, it is often intimidating to learn a whole new set of skills. With this in mind, The Clay Studio in Philadelphia has rolled out a line of workshops called "Get smARTs"~(TM) that focuses not only on new ceramic techniques, but also on the supplementary skills that emerging artists need to effectively represent themselves.
