I love the community that SCAA has created for local artists. The classes offered, and the instructors teaching the classes are simply amazing. While I enjoy the ease of having a small studio with a wheel and kiln in my home, I very much miss the community and camaraderie provided by being a pottery studio member at SCAA.
