The Jane Hartsook Gallery is pleased to present an exhibition of individual and collaborative work by Kevin Snipes and Ruth Easterbrook. In this exhibition, the artists explore the interplay between form and narrative by combining Easterbrook’s mastery of form and lush, tapestry-inspired glazes with Snipes’ visually complex and compelling narratives in joyfully experimental ways. This exhibition marks the first time this unique collection of collaborative work will be shown.
Snipes and Easterbrook’s collaboration began with a playful moment, when Snipes was inspired to use a postcard of Easterbrook’s work in a collage. Easterbrook and Snipes began creating ceramic forms and exchanging them, each adding a surface to the other’s form. Facilitated by the proximity of their studios—both artists are at The Clay Studio in Philadelphia—their ideas, forms, and surfaces “ping-ponged” back and forth, with each finished work being the result of a call and response between the artists. This process necessarily required improvisation, which gave both artists new perspectives about their work.
Ruth Easterbrook is an artist based out of Philadelphia. She earned her MFA from New York State College of Ceramics at Alfred University and her BFA from Syracuse University. She has shown her work across the United States, including at Market House Craft Center (Lancaster, PA; 2020), Charlie Cummings Gallery (Gainesville, FL; 2020), and Red Lodge Clay Center (Red Lodge, MT; 2019). She has held residencies at the Harvard Ceramics Program, Anderson Ranch Arts Center, and The Clay Studio in Philadelphia, and was honored as an Emerging Artist by the National Council on Education for the Ceramic Arts in 2020.
Kevin Snipes is an artist based out of Philadelphia. He studied ceramics at the University of Florida and earned his BFA from the Cleveland Institute of Art. He has shown his work across the United States, including at Harvey Preston Gallery (Aspen, CO; 2021), The Clay Studio (Philadelphia, PA; 2021), and Wesleyan College (Macon, GA; 2020). He has held numerous artist residencies, including at the Archie Bray Foundation, the American Museum of Ceramic Art, and the Northern Clay Center.

The Jane Hartsook Gallery is pleased to present a three-person exhibition of work by April D. Felipe, Andréa Keys Connell, and Kensuke Yamada. United by a passion for using figurative ceramics to tell stories about human connection, each artist engages a different aspect of the figure’s narrative qualities to playfully tease apart the more difficult parts of being human.
Inspired by his experience immigrating to the United States from Japan, Yamada’s figurative sculptures are vessels that contain emotions that bridge language and cultural divides. Their expressions are mutable, allowing us to see ourselves reflected in them, our interpretations of his figures fluctuating each day as our feelings do. Keys Connell uses the aesthetics of figurines and statuary to reflect on the truth and the absurdity of archetypes. By remixing this familiar imagery, Keys Connell encourages us to reframe the narratives we create about who we are and how to be.
Felipe uses the figure—often in parts or abstracted—combined with elements of domesticity to think about the narratives we tell ourselves, within families, and societally. By invoking the idea of a childhood home along with our lived and cultural histories, Felipe considers how we use storytelling to create a sense of belonging. The work in this exhibition strives to explain all the things we want to tell each other that we struggle to express, but never stop attempting to by telling and retelling our stories.
April D. Felipe is an Ohio-based artist and co-organizer of The Color Network. Felipe earned her MFA in ceramics from Ohio University, and her BFA from the New York State College of Ceramics at Alfred University. Her work has been shown throughout the U.S. including at Reeves House Visual Arts Center (Woodstock, GA; 2023), Belger Arts Center (Kansas City, MO; 2022), Grounds for Sculpture (Trenton, NJ; 2022), and the Akron Museum of Art (Akron, OH; 2021). She has been an artist in residence at the Archie Bray Foundation and was a Ceramics Monthly Emerging Artist in 2017.
Andréa Keys Connell is a North Carolina-based artist and currently an associate professor at Appalachian State University. She earned her MFA from Ohio University and her BFA from Maryland Institute College of Art. Her work has been shown internationally including at Morean Center for Clay (St. Petersburg, FL; 2023), Weston Art Gallery (Cleveland, OH; 2021), and Gaya Culture and Art Center (Goryeong, South Korea; 2019). She has been a visiting artist at Miami University and SUNY – Buffalo State University and has taught workshops at Penland School of Craft and the Metropolitan Museum of Art.
Kensuke Yamada is a California-based artist and currently an assistant professor at California State University, Chico. He earned his MFA from the University of Montana, Missoula and his BFA from The Evergreen State College. His work has been shown throughout the U.S. including at Duane Reed Gallery (St. Louis, MO; 2022), Blue Spiral Gallery (Asheville, NC; 2022), and Windgate Museum of Art (Conway, AR; 2021).

Artist Talk: Gina Tibbott
2025-01-28 16:00 - 17:00 | Greenwich House Pottery, 16 Jones Street, New York, NY, 10014, United States
Gina Tibbott
Tuesday, January 28, 2025
In-Person Artist Talk, 4:00 – 5:00 p.m.
Gina Tibbott will give an in-person talk about the project she worked on during her residency at Greenwich House Pottery.
Gina Tibbott is a New York City-based artist whose ceramics practice is informed by her years working as a field archeologist. Other materials like metal, fiber, and wood usually degrade, leaving only the barest of traces, but ceramics can survive thousands of years in harsh conditions to be unearthed almost unchanged. Tibbott draws inspiration from the forms and decorative styles of these time-traveling ceramics.
During her residency, Tibbott used Gisela Richter’s The Craft of Athenian Pottery published in 1923 as a jumping off point to create new work based on ancient forms. When it was first published, this book was notable in the field of archeology for taking a process-based approach to understanding ancient ceramics. To accomplish this task, Richter turned to Maude Robinson, GHP’s director from 1911 to 1941, to provide the technical insight necessary for the book. Thus, Tibbott collaborated not only with ancient Athenian potters through her project, but also with the Pottery’s first director.
The talk is free and open to the public.
No registration necessary.

Artist Talk: Lizzy Chemel
2025-03-06 17:00 - 18:00 | Greenwich House Pottery, 16 Jones Street, New York, NY, 10014, United States
Lizzy Chemel
Thursday, March 6, 2025
In-Person Artist Talk, 5:00 – 6:00 p.m.
Lizzy Chemel will give an in-person talk about the project she is working on on during her residency at Greenwich House Pottery.

Chemel is a New York City-based artist who makes sculptures in ceramic, found materials, wax, bronze, and cement. She uses mold-making to combine unlike objects that draw from her curiosity about undocumented ancestry. Adopted from Southern China and raised in California, Chemel’s works are influenced by ancient Chinese artifacts, translations, and folklore, as well as memories and iconography of her American upbringing.
During her residency, Chemel will continue developing a series of plaster molds that draw inspiration from the intersection of traditional Chinese culture and Hollywood kitsch. Her work will involve slip-casting from a range of molds, including both direct life-casts of objects such as pig feet and stones, as well as once-familiar items like Lincoln Logs that have been manipulated, combined, and resized.
Chemel earned her MFA in sculpture from New York University. Recent exhibitions include: Night Club Gallery (Minneapolis, MN; 2023), Hyacinth Gallery (New York,NY; 2023) Jane Hartsook Gallery (New York, NY; 2022) , 80WSE (New York, NY; 2022), and Conduit Gallery (Ridgewood, NY; 2021). She was a resident at A-Z West, and is currently a studio assistant for Simone Leigh.

The talk is free and open to the public with RSVP.

The Jane Hartsook Gallery is pleased to present an exhibition recognizing the talented artists who contribute to the Greenwich House Pottery (GHP) community. This exhibition showcases the artistic range of GHP’s makers, each of whom uses the Pottery’s extensive resources to express their own creative voice in clay. From functional ceramics to sculpture, this exhibition is as diverse and as interesting as the artists themselves.
Greenwich House Pottery has been supporting artists and their projects since 1904. Since our first clay classes for neighborhood youth to our present-day educational program, lecture series, artist residency program, and exhibition series, we have been promoting the field of ceramics. We now serve more than 600 artists and students per term who learn from professional faculty and staff proficient in a range of topics from wheel throwing, hand-building, and mold-making to glaze chemistry and slip casting at our two studio locations. GHP also hosts workshops and lectures by leading ceramic artists from around the country and offers children the opportunity to work in clay through Greenwich House’s Youth Community Center. The artists in this exhibition represent the continuous achievement, exploration and passion for ceramic arts that GHP has fostered for over 120 years.
Each year four prizes are awarded to outstanding works in the exhibition. This year the Hiroe Hanazono Award for an exceptional slipcast work went to Labadie Guilhem, the Madeline Sadin Award for an exceptional wheel-thrown work went to Helen Lau, the Anna Siok Award for an exceptional handbuilt work went to Charlotte Shi, the Director’s Choice for a piece that especially speaks to the Pottery’s Director went to Mirjana Ciric, and the Collector’s Choice Award, selected by Stephen Parahus, went to Jung Choi. Each awardee receives $500 in firing credit to encourage and support the continuation of their ceramics practice. These awards were made possible this year with generous support from Greenwich House Pottery collector, Stephen Parahus.

During his residency, Barragán developed a project that uses southwestern pottery and imagery drawn from punk, rock, and metal music to turn a critical eye towards the U.S./Mexico border.
Carson Culp is a potter whose work is defined by his deep respect for the handmade and intentional making. Culp learned this approach through working for numerous studios and artists in Portland, OR and honed it during his one-year apprenticeship at the renowned Leach Pottery. He continues to further his creative expression through numerous artist residencies. Teaching and mentorship are integral to his practice, and Culp spent his residency passing on his philosophy of making and growing his voice as a potter.
Kristy Moreno is a California-based artist who uses aesthetics influenced by Southern California counter cultures, cartoons from the 1990s, and folklore to create figurative work that imagines fictional communities in a decolonized future who are free from patriarchal structures. During her residency, Moreno experimented with a range of matte and gloss mid- and low-fire glazes to better compliment her recent work, and took time for creative exploration.
Gina Tibbott is a New York City-based artist whose ceramics practice is informed by her years working as a field archeologist. During her residency, Tibbott used Gisela Richter’s The Craft of Athenian Pottery published in 1923 as a jumping off point to create new work based on ancient forms. The manual was written with technical insight provided by Maude Robinson (Pottery Director, 1911 – 1941). Thus, Tibbott collaborated not only with ancient Athenian potters through her project, but also with the Pottery’s first director.

Artist Talk: Melissa Joseph
2025-05-21 16:00 - 17:00 | Greenwich House Pottery, 16 Jones Street, New York, NY, 10014, United States
Melissa Joseph
Wednesday, May 21, 2025
In-Person Artist Talk, 4:00 – 5:00 p.m.
Melissa Joseph will give an in-person talk about the project she is working on on during her residency at Greenwich House Pottery.

Joseph is a New York City-based interdisciplinary artist whose art practice in craft-based media—especially ceramics and textiles—addresses themes of diaspora, family history, and the politics of how we occupy spaces. Joseph is particularly interested in connecting people through collective memory and shared experiences.
Joseph earned an MFA from Pennsylvania Academy of the Fine Arts, an MAT from Rhode Island School of Design and a BA from New York University. Her work has been shown at Margot Samel (New York, NY; 2023), Independent Art Fair (New York, NY; 2023), and NADA Miami (Florida; 2021), among others. Joseph has participated in residencies including at Artpace San Antonio (San Antonio, TX; 2024), the Archie Bray Foundation (Helena, MT; 2022) and The Elizabeth Foundation for the Arts (New York, NY; 2021).
During her residency, Joseph will create ceramic inlay paintings that are an interpretation of the visual languages she uses in felt and paper. She will particularly focus on the technical side of constructing work from varied clay bodies and work to expand the size of these clay paintings. In addition to translating her visual language into clay, Joseph will also create felt/ceramic hybrid works.

The talk is free and open to the public with RSVP.

Premiere: Clay in Context at the Whitney Museum
2025-06-05 16:00 - 18:00 | NY
Greenwich House Pottery is proud to partner with the Whitney Museum of American Art for the premiere of Clay in Context, a screening of four short films by Kate Parvenski and Paraphrase Studio that spotlight the 2024 GHP Artists in Residence: Daniel Barragán, Carson Culp, Kristy Moreno, and Gina Tibbott.
Through vivid cinematography and thoughtful storytelling, Clay in Context offers an intimate look into the studio practices of these four artists and the impact of their residencies at Greenwich House Pottery. From investigations of identity, place, and border politics to reinterpretations of ancient ceramic forms, the films reflect the depth and diversity of artistic expression nurtured through GHP’s Artist Residency Program.
Following the 40-minute screening, guests are invited to stay for a live Q&A with NYC-based artists Kristy Moreno and Gina Tibbott. A reception will follow in Greenwich House Pottery’s Jane Hartsook Gallery at 16 Jones Street.
This event is presented in conjunction with Ceramics Now, an exhibition on view at the Jane Hartsook Gallery at Greenwich House Pottery from May 8 through June 13, 2025. The exhibition features the work developed by Barragán, Culp, Moreno, and Tibbott during their residencies.
About the Artists

Daniel Barragán (NYC) uses painting and sculpture to explore issues of identity, ownership, and resistance. At GHP, he turned to the visual language of the U.S./Mexico border and the American Southwest, fusing traditional southwestern pottery with punk and metal motifs.

Carson Culp (Portland, OR) brings a reverence for handcraft to his functional pottery. A former apprentice at Leach Pottery, Culp used his residency to mentor others and further refine his own voice as a maker.

Kristy Moreno (CA) blends folklore, 1990s cartoons, and SoCal subcultures to imagine decolonized futures. During her residency, she experimented with glaze techniques that deepened the impact of her vibrant figurative sculptures.

Gina Tibbott (NYC) draws on her background as a field archaeologist to reimagine ancient forms. During her residency, she used Gisela Richter’s 1923 manual The Craft of Athenian Pottery—written with technical insights from GHP’s first director, Maude Robinson—as a springboard to create her work.

We hope you’ll join us in celebrating this vibrant and timely reflection on contemporary ceramic art.
This event is free and open to the public. Registration is required.
This program is supported by the Lenore G. Tawney Foundation, public funds from the New York City Department of Cultural Affairs in partnership with the City Council, the Milton and Sally Avery Arts Foundation, the Robert and Beatrice Hompe Foundation and the Windgate Charitable Foundation.

The Jane Hartsook Gallery at Greenwich House Pottery is pleased to present After ‘Women in the News’: Kari Marboe, Friends, and Colleagues, an exhibition celebrating the life and artistic legacy of ceramicist Kari Marboe (1984-2022).

Kari Marboe was a celebrated artist and educator known for her innovative approach to ceramics and her commitment to exploring historical narratives, personal archives, and material storytelling. This exhibition brings together 11 artists—friends, collaborators, and colleagues—whose work reflects Marboe’s influence and artistic values.

Inspired by Marboe’s sculpture Women in the News–Viola Frey, from the 2022 exhibition After Viola at Yolo Arts, this show embraces the spirit of collaboration and community that exemplified Marboe’s approach to artmaking. Featuring works in a variety of materials—from fiber to clay to video—the artists explore themes of identity, memory, and materiality, echoing Marboe’s deep curiosity and expansive creative practice.

Kari Marboe was a fellowship artist at Greenwich House Pottery in 2019 and passed away in 2022. This exhibition was made possible with the support of Sunny A. Smith, Dean of Fine Arts, California College of the Arts and the Kari Marboe Estate.
Presented in partnership with HB381. Exhibition on view at 381 Broadway, New York, NY.
