I recently moved to Salt Lake City, UT to take a job, and am wondering if
there is anyone on the list in the Salt Lake area who might be able to
recommend any ceramics-related resources. I'd be open to any suggestions -
good galleries to check out, suppliers, etc. However, my main interest is
finding a place I might be able to pay to fire my work (I do mostly cone 6
oxidation) as I'm unfortunately going to have to be a kiln leech until I can
find a permanent studio and afford a kiln. Feel free to contact me
off-list, and thanks in advance for your responses. Best,
Brian Besch

Brian,
Start with http://www.redkiln.org/ Great folks,
readily accessible location.
Clay supplier nearby is Capital Ceramics, great
people there, also. see
http://www.capitalceramics.com/
Take a drive up to Park City to check out the work
of Bruce Larrabee...he's been selling pots for more
than 30 years, all functional work...see some in a
give shop on Concourse D, I believe, in the SLC
airport...
There's much, much, so much more...
University of Utah has a good clay program. Utah
State's program, up in Logan, is incredible. Box
Elder High School, on the way to Logan, has a clay
program that turns out better artists than many
colleges...if the school district hasn't succeeded in
dismembering the program as they seemed set on doing a
month ago... :-(
You're in good clay country! I notice your design
work is very, very nice!

The Salt Lake Art Center used to have a pretty good facility, not sure of it's current status, haven't been to it in years.

Dave, I did a search and found that Lee Burningham's Ceramics Program at the
Box Elder School will continue. There was a great deal of community and
student support that quickly turned the tide in his favour.
