NCECA

Groundworks Art Lab has several opportunities for you to find creativity in community!

About Us
Groundworks Art Lab provides hands-on art education for all ages and abilities in community studios where people can connect. We offer affordable, accessible programs in wood, metal, glass, print, and clay. These “studio arts” often require equipment and facilities beyond the reach of most individuals. We also partner with a number of local organizations to provide free and reduced-rate programs outside the studio to underserved members of the community.

Work With Us
We are always looking for teaching artists who are interested in becoming paid instructors, especially for our summer camp programs. If you are looking for a way to continue working in clay over the summer, while earning some cash, we’ve got you. If you’re looking for a bigger role, we also have regular openings for studio techs. Learn about our job opportunities, send us your resume at contact@groundworksartlab.org, or come visit us in the resource hall. Some of our favorite employees found us at NCECA.

Play With Us
Our hands-on workshops feature opportunities to learn new techniques from talented artists. In 2025, we’re hosting Melissa Weiss from Asheville, NC who lost her studio in the flooding after Hurricane Helene. Melissa’s work features colorful underglazes applied by layering, wax resist, and inlay techniques. Plus, she digs her own clay, y’all. Learn more about our workshops.
