A self-efficacy-building project was conducted with one group from AR Health, a community-based program serving the LGBTQ+ population. Public classes were held in film developing and darkroom printing. . The Clay Studio offered classes to beginners in wheel throwing and hand building to enable class completers to work independently in our Clay Studio.
