Donna has over fifteen years of experience working in clay and has enjoyed sharing her knowledge with students through art programming at Mother Brook Arts and Community Center, Indigo Fire Studio, The Carroll Center for the Blind, Special Needs Arts Programs (SNAP), and other regional art programs. In the studio, she delights in the level of control and malleability that clay affords…but also in the unexpected, stunning phenomena that can occur in the kiln.

Laurie Savage received a BFA in metalsmithing from MassArt in 1998.  She has taught the jewelry program at Cambridge Center for Adult Ed since 1999, as well as metalsmithing and jewelry classes / workshops at Metalwerx, DeCordova, Brookline Adult Ed, Arlington Community Ed, LEXArt, and Haystack.  Laurie maintains a studio at the Distillery artists building in South Boston.  Her work is available by commission.

I instruct students of all ages in pottery. Sharing my love of clay and seeing a student have an ah ha! moment is as rewarding for me as it is for them. Currently, I teach daytime and evening all level pottery classes at Mother Brook Arts, and  "try it on the wheel" Friday night workshops.

I began wheel throwing in High School followed by a  Studio Art degree from Skidmore College with a focus in Ceramics, Photography and Painting.  After college, I took classes at the Museum School of Fine Arts Boston, Art Institute of Boston and Harvard University. I continue educating myself by taking workshops and classes every year to add new tools to my tool box. I split my time between teaching and making my ceramic art that I sell locally at art shows and through galleries. More information about me can be found on my website at www.lisawbwalker.com
