Northern Clay Center is seeking individuals ages 18+ as instructors for our Adult Education and ClayToGo programs.

Grants & Fellowships
NCC proudly facilitates grant programs for current students, recent graduates, and emerging and mid-career artists.
Each year we want to increase our reach into the depth of talent in the region, the nation, and the globe. We have updated our application process to be more inclusive of a variety of backgrounds.
Exhibition Proposals
Northern Clay Center continually solicits guest curators and exhibition proposals for the Emily Galusha Gallery. These exhibitions require artwork made either partially or completely of ceramic materials. The gallery space measures 31’ x 19’ with a wall height of 11’. There are two windows on the south wall of the space. The maximum size for an object is 9.5’ x 5.5’.
Proposals can be for solo or group exhibitions. Proposals incorporating original or unique pieces made specifically for exhibition at NCC or in response to the space are most likely to be considered.
Adult Education Scholarships
NCC is committed to maintaining accountability and pursuing action to build meaningful diversity, impactful equity, and genuine inclusivity in the ceramic community. We recognize that there are significant and systemic racial and economic impacts that impede participation in the arts, and resulting financial barriers contribute to further divide. To address and help bridge financial barriers to ceramic education, NCC is implementing scholarship options for our education programming.
We offer two scholarship options:
- a half-tuition scholarship open to artists and learners with financial need
- a full-tuition scholarship open to artists and learners who identify as Black, Indigenous, or a Person of Color
