SUMMARY:Echoes: CCS Alumni Voices in Clay
DESCRIPTION:Reception Date: Friday\, March 20\, 5:00 pm – 8:00 pm \nGallery Hours: Tuesday–Saturday\, 11:00 am – 5:00 pm; Extended hours during NCECA conference (March 25-28) \nEchoes: Alumni Voices in Clay gathers the work of CCS Ceramics alumni whose practices continue to expand the field of contemporary ceramics. Their approaches reflect both continuity and change—shaped in part by their time at CCS\, but equally by the personal experiences\, cultural influences\, and creative communities that inform their work today. Each artist builds upon a foundation of skill and inquiry while forging distinct paths that embody personal vision\, cultural perspective\, and material innovation. \nThe exhibition features a wide spectrum of approaches\, from functional pottery to sculpture\, installation\, mixed media\, and experimental processes. In their diversity\, these works act as echoes of the past while opening space for future possibilities\, showing how clay becomes a language of storytelling\, interpretation\, and lived experience. \nEchoes highlights the voices of CCS alumni while fostering dialogue across generations. The exhibition celebrates both connection and expansion\, acknowledging roots in Detroit’s creative community while recognizing how alumni amplify their practices within the national ceramics landscape. \nArtists:\nKenneth Baskin\, ‘02\, Crafts – Ceramics\nChrys Bonnay Lewis\, ‘10\, Crafts – Ceramics\nAlexis Bratto\, ‘19\, Crafts\nKatie Bramlage\, ‘11\, Crafts – Ceramics\nHailey Callahan\, ‘20\, Crafts\nHenry Crissman\, ‘12\, Crafts – Ceramics\nValerie Davis\, ‘95\, Crafts\nEmma Doppel\, ‘24\, Crafts – Ceramics\nEmily Duke\, ‘09\, Crafts – Ceramics\nAnna Edry\, ‘25\, Crafts – Ceramics\nJaminely Emmanuelli\, ‘19\, Crafts\nSean Evans\, ‘01\, Crafts – Ceramics\nJohn Gargano\, ‘92\, Crafts\nBrett Gray\, ‘10\, Crafts – Ceramics\nSteven Johnson\, ‘17\, Crafts\nLaith Karmo\, ‘04\, Crafts – Ceramics\nKaren Katanick\, ‘78\, Crafts – Ceramics\nJoy Kin\, ‘19\, Crafts\nThea Lavender\, ‘24\, Crafts – Ceramics\nEmily LoPresto\, ‘15\, Crafts\nMelissa Mytty\, ‘04\, Crafts – Ceramics\nJane Plieth\, ‘14\, Crafts – Ceramics\nHayden Allison Richer\, ‘15\, Crafts\nDrew Siering\, ‘24\, Crafts – Ceramics\nJanelle Songer\, ‘08\, Crafts – Ceramics\nKaiser Suidan\, ‘93\, Crafts – Ceramics\nTravis Grant Taylor\, ‘14\, Crafts – Ceramics\nKara Thomas\, ‘13\, Crafts – Ceramics\nKarleigh Thompson\, ‘14\, Fine Arts\nVirginia Torrence\, ‘13\, Crafts – Ceramics\nLeilani Trinka\, ‘92\, Crafts – Ceramics\nElysia Vandenbussche\, ‘11\, Crafts – Ceramics\nBobby Veresan\, ‘20\, Crafts – Ceramics\nLeah Waldo ’15\, Crafts – Glass\nKailani Wolfe\, ‘25\, Crafts – Ceramics\nPierpaolo Zaldana\, ‘23\, Illustration\nTyler Zibkowski\, ‘19\, Crafts
