We are a powerfully creative group of makers who are aware of the vulnerability that accompanies art-making. We commit ourselves to supporting one another, and to fighting the insipient bigotry of our culture. Together we’ve created a flexible, skill-building atmosphere in our studio. All are welcome to join us in this celebration of the artist within—OUTLAW ARTS – A Collaborative Clay Studio.

Sara (she/her) is an artist and educator rooted in Philadelphia on Lenni Lenape land. Her art making of the last 5 years is, at its heart, an exploration into objects of adoration; she is interested in playing with the relationship between form and function, making art that is gifted, lived with, and contributes to ways people cultivate the intimate spaces of home and consider relationships to their environment. When she’s not in the classroom or studio she loves to play in her garden, listen to audiobooks, rearrange the furniture, and walk in the woods of the Wissahickon by her house.
