Meet Your Instructor

 Tanya Pohlmann

I received my Bachelor of Fine Arts degree for both ceramics and sculpture at Colorado State University where I had several amazing instructors that helped me grow. They taught me how to see beyond face value and the difference between making and creating. I love the making process, but enjoy when I have the opportunity dig deep to create something unique.  I went on to pursue a masters degree in fine arts at the University of Hartford where I learned to think outside of the box and truly explore art and its meaning in my life. After obtaining my degree, I spent too many years in corporate America but continued creating in clay.  This timeframe gave me the tools I needed to take the leap and start my own business. I am now able to combine my love for teaching, ceramics and animal husbandry together by offering pasture board for a few horses, and run an art center in Fairview, North Carolina - Union County.  

I am excited to provide a different kind of environment for people to create art.  For now, the art school will offer wheel throwing, Hand-Building and Sculpture classes.  In time, I hope to provide space for other artists, and agricultural enthusiasts to create a dynamic community.
