Education
We are proud to offer innovative programming that elevates the ceramic experience for students of all ages, backgrounds, and abilities.

About Education at The Bray
Since 1951, Education has been a facet of The Bray’s identity, shifting and growing while reflecting the larger ceramics community and society as a whole.
In 2017, a new education facility was built to maximize flexibility in programming. In late 2021, a new programming structure was designed with built-in flexibility to allow for continuous assessment and reimagining of our educational curriculum, class formats, and instructional methods.
After prolonged closure due to the global pandemic, we are proud to relaunch Education and Engagement at The Bray with an eye toward innovation and discovery, as we continue to learn and grow alongside our students. Discover our core educational programming below!
