Meet the Instructors

Hanami Morris primarily uses metal and clay to fabricate objects revolving around his identities and how they intersect. They enjoy both wheelthrowing and handbuilding, but they also have a particular interest in glaze chemistry.

Lindsay Wood  (she/her) began playing with clay back in 2015 when she took her first ceramics class at the Visual Arts Center in Richmond, and has been hooked ever since! Using handbuilding techniques, she creates both functional and sculptural forms. Some of her wares are carved with imagery reflective of her inspirations, joys, memories and nature. Lindsay has taught classes through local nonprofits Art 180 and Art on Wheels, and has been a part of the Hand / Thrown team since summer of 2019. She believes that art has healing powers, and can touch people’s lives by reducing stress, boosting self-esteem, and encouraging self-expression.
