About the magazine

The Clay Studio of Missoula is a non-profit ceramic arts center founded in 1998 by a collective of local artists seeking to establish a dedicated space for clay practice in the Northern Rockies. From its inception, the studio has prioritized accessibility, experimentation, and community engagement, offering studio access, workshops, and residencies that support both emerging and established ceramic artists. Its mission centers on fostering creative growth through hands-on making, critical dialogue, and public programming that connects contemporary ceramics to broader cultural conversations.

Submitting your work

Reading periodOpen now

Artists should approach the studio with a clear project proposal that demonstrates both technical proficiency and conceptual intentionality. Residency applications are typically reviewed by a panel of studio staff and external artists; work samples should reflect a cohesive body of recent work. It is advisable to visit the studio or attend an event before applying to understand its facilities and community culture. The studio values applicants who articulate how their practice will benefit from the specific resources and environment of Missoula, and who show willingness to engage with the local community through open studios or workshops.
