Here’s the episode that budding ceramic artists are probably waiting to hear - the inside scoop on how a gallery is run and how you can get in to one. The short answer is that there aren’t hard and fast rules to this. It might be more important though to hear the story of how a gallery actually gets started and what kind of person has the ambition to build one. Today’s guest tells us about the impetus of Companion Gallery. Welcome Eric Botbyl.

Finding a gallery that’s the right fit is like dating - there are so many things to consider. Throughout this season we’ve talked to artists that have second jobs that sustain their practice, or did sales themselves. For the full-time artist that relies on the gallery system to make a living we need a dedicated episode. Our guest today talks about being a represented artist at a gallery. Welcome Jing Huang.

How can clay and A.I. work together? Our guest today walks us through the ins and outs of using this new technology. Welcome Carole Epp.

The wonderful thing about ceramics is that many people can experience it with or without an education in it. There are huge swaths of people, much more than makers, that buy and appreciate pottery without the predisposition to why something looks formally good or conceptually resonant - they just like it. Today’s guest designed one of the most iconic and popular teapots in American design history. Welcome Judith Weber.
