Rumriver Art Center is excited to announce that it received a FY22 Flexible Support Grant to help us grow and expand our flourishing ceramics program at the art center. This activity is made possible by the voters of Minnesota through a grant from the Metropolitan Regional Arts Council, thanks to a legislative appropriation from the arts and cultural heritage fund. The grant funds will allow us to purchase a Pugmill to reclaim clay; (2) purchase & install new shelving to store pottery pieces; (3) hire additional teaching artists to teach more ceramics classes; (4) connect a second kiln to an electrical line and install ventilation; and (5) purchase more clay, tools and glazes for classes. We are excited about this project!
