We’re always excited to highlight the voices of our talented Brick & Mortar community! Ceramicist and teacher Nikki Kwong recently returned from her first trip to the National Council on Education for the Ceramic Arts (NCECA) conference full of new inspiration and ideas. We caught up with her to hear about her experience, the artists and artworks that blew her mind, and the clay-related chaos she and Lindsay narrowly avoided at the airport.

The holiday season is here, and there’s no better time to shop small and support local artists! We’re proud to highlight three talented members of our Brick & Mortar Studios community—Claire E. Pockell-Wilson, Meaghan Boyle, and Alex Beck—who will be showcasing their ceramics at upcoming craft shows. Whether you're looking for unique gifts or want to treat yourself to something special, these events are not to be missed.
