More Than Ever: Make Art. Practice Empathy. Build Community. In times of uncertainty and rising tension, creativity is not a luxury. It is a necessity. Art helps us process. Empathy
Wheels in Motion is a bold step forward in reimagining our historic building to meet the demands of a thriving arts community. Fueled by the incredible demand for wheel-throwing classes, we plan to alternate the Skylight Room at times into an additional ceramics studio equipped with portable pottery wheels. To make that possible, we will need to buy new pottery wheels, upgrade the plumbing, and make key improvements to support this new creative space.
But Wheels in Motion is not only about wheels. It represents the creative momentum that defines us. It is about turning energy into opportunity. Each wheel we add means more people discovering the joy of clay, more community members connecting through art, and more creativity taking shape right here in Kirkland.
Your gift will directly fund this expansion and ensure that more artists, students, and families can participate in the creative experience that makes Kirkland Arts Center the special place Where Art Connects Us
