SUMMARY:Open Studios with Kelly Normand and Evan Morse
DESCRIPTION:Open Studios at Manship Artists Residency\nFeaturing Resident Manship Artists Kelly Normand & Evan Morse \nJoin us for artist studio visits and conversation as current Manship Artists Residents Evan Morse and Kelly Normand share the work they have created during their two-week residency at Starfield. \nVisitors will have the opportunity to meet the artists\, learn about their creative processes\, and experience newly completed works in the settings where they were made. \nThese informal open studio visits offer a rare glimpse into the artistic process and the opportunity to see how two artists working in different mediums have responded to the unique environment of Manship Artists Residency. \nREGISTER HERE.\n  \n\n\nAbout Kelly:\nKelly Normand is an artist and teacher who grew up in Beverly\, Massachusetts near the beach. She moved to  New York City when she was seventeen to study art. She has continued to live and work in New York ever since. \nDuring these two weeks in Gloucester\, Kelly has been thinking about the solace of internalized memories of the earth and sea. She has painted the quarries and the view of the harbor from Ledge Road\, on site and in real time. The residency has provided an opportunity to return and pay homage to the rocks\, water\, light and air of the North Atlantic. \nThe group of paintings Kelly will show during the open studio were created in these past two weeks at Manship. Work by Kelly Normand can be viewed at www.knormand.com \n  \nAbout Evan:\nBorn in Boston\, Evan Morse earned an MFA in sculpture from Boston University and a BA from Wheaton College\, MA. Following an influential semester abroad in Florence\, he later returned to Italy to study in Carrara\, practicing the traditional sculpture techniques of clay-modeling\, plaster-casting\, and stone-carving. He has made several returns to Italy\, where he finds continued inspiration. Closer to home\, Morse is an active member and instructor at the Carving Studio & Sculpture Center in West Rutland\, VT. \nRepresenting the National Sculpture Society as the Walker Hancock Sculptor-in-Residence\, Morse is working in the figurative tradition and carving stone on site\, right next to two of Cape Ann’s historic granite quarries. Find Evan‘s work at morsesculpture.com and goathousestudio.com \nPhoto credit: Tsar Fedorsky \n

A classically trained pianist who shifted from Bach to the Indigo Girls\, she brings the lively spirit of a folk festival to her performances\, engaging audiences with a mix of sung and spoken storytelling. \nAisling will be performing alongside “Gathering\,” an installation of her ceramic sculpture on display at Manship from August 22 – September 28. This outdoor installation is a continuation of her ongoing series\, the Chubby Clay Bodies\, a light-hearted\, celebratory exploration of the natural shapes and forms found both in people and in pottery. These voluptuous\, tactile pots are wheel-thrown and hand-altered in Aisling’s pottery studio in the Gloucester community of Lanesville. \nSince moving to Gloucester in 2019\, initially as one of the first artists in residence at the Manship Artists Residency\, Aisling has performed at the Manship Artists Residency\, the Rocky Neck Cultural Center\, the Gloucester Meetinghouse Foundation\, and MAGMA (Movement Arts\, Gloucester\, MA). As a member of the Treehouse Charlatans\, she has performed at the Lanesville Music Festival\, Ipswich Riverwalk\, Gloucester Block Party\, the Cape Ann Museum\, and Art in the Barn. \nRegister for concert online at this link. \nImage credit: Courtesy of the Artist

SUMMARY:Bowl Painting Event for The Open Door Food Pantry
DESCRIPTION:Hosted at Starfield \nEvery year our community comes together for one of its most beloved and important events – The Empty Bowl Dinner\, a fundraiser for The Open Door\, our local food pantry. Initiated in 2001 by Marty Morgan with the help of fellow potters\, community members now decorate the bowls at painting parties that are organized throughout the year.  \nSeptember happens to be Hunger Action Month and you can take action to help end hunger! The bowl you are invited to come and paint for free will be given out at The Empty Bowl‘s fundraiser-dinner as a reminder that somewhere in our community someone’s bowl is empty. \nRegister for an opening on September 20 through this link. \nPlease note:  \nYou just need to register for any open time slot on the Advance Registration page to be able to come and paint a bowl. \nTables will be set up with supplies so that anyone who is interested can participate and paint a bowl. There is no special registration page specifically for painting a bowl.  \nAll are welcome! We will have enough bowls for everyone who signs up on September 20…. \nImage Courtesy The Open Door

SUMMARY:3-D Clay Printing Lecture and Demonstration - FULL
DESCRIPTION:Ellen Schön will give a lecture and demonstration discussing her journey from creating hand-made ceramics to 3D clay printing. This event is offered in conjunction with the Manship Artists Residency show\, Heavenly Earth. Suggested donation: $20. \nREGISTER FOR 3-D Printing Workshop \n  \nEllen Schön Brief Biography \nEllen Schön recently retired as Adjunct Professor in Fine Arts at Lesley University College of Art and Design in Cambridge\, MA\, where she taught ceramics and 3-D courses there since 2002. Schön earned a BA from Marlboro College (Ceramics and Perceptual Psychology) and an MFA in Ceramics from Boston University’s Program in Artisanry. \nSchön has organized and co-curated interdisciplinary\, thematic group exhibitions in non-profit venues in the Boston area and abroad. A member of the European Artists Association\, her interest in international artist collaboration and exchange has led her to travel extensively\, participating in international artist symposia/residencies in Denmark\, Finland\, Croatia\, Hungary\, Turkey\, Israel\, Germany\, and Malaysia. \nSchön won The Brother Thomas Fellowship Award and The Artist Foundation Fellowship from the Massachusetts Council on the Arts and Humanities. She was an Artist Fellow at the St. Botolph Club and is a member of the Boston Sculptors Gallery. Schön’s ceramic sculpture is held in the permanent collections of the Museum of Fine Arts\, Boston\, and the Fuller Craft Museum in Brockton\, MA. \n  \nEllen Schön Artist Statement \nInspired by diverse cultural traditions\, my recent ceramic work investigates 3D clay-printed vessels and totems\, alluding to both mathematical symmetries and to the human figure. I employ a variety of 3D modeling software\, primarily Blender\, Tinkercad\, and Rhino. There is an interesting tension between control in designing on the computer and chance in the printing of clay. Using this new technology has stimulated discovery\, expanding possibilities of scale and the ability to create more complex ceramic forms. My intention is what it always has been–to create unique\, personal forms which resonate\, whether they are functional\, metaphorical\, or somewhere in between. \nwww.ellenschon.com \n@ellenschonceramics
