I’m Hannah, and my journey with pottery began in 2019 with an intro to pottery night class. Since then, I’ve been hooked. I stopped when the rest of the world did in 2020, but found myself drawn back to ceramics with an open Independent Artist spot at Kimball Jenkins at the end of 2022. After that, I fully immersed myself into the world of ceramics at Kimball Jenkins, and gradually evolved into an instructor, teaching pottery nights and weekly beginner classes!
Having been an art enthusiast my whole life, I never thought I would be as involved in the art community as I am today. I never “trained” to be an artist, or a teacher for that matter. I am what many would call a “serial hobbiest” where I have tried many different hobbies and art styles, but ceramics has been a constant for the past few years. It’s the draw of working with your hands, having the flexibility to make anything you want, and also still having the option to paint on ceramics is really exciting to me. To me, any worries from the day go away when I step into the studio, and I know others feel the same.
Ultimately, it’s the community that Kimball Jenkins has created within its walls that makes this place so special. The campus, the faculty, and the students who make this space vibrant is why I look forward to giving so much back to it. I am incredibly grateful to have this space to create and share my love for pottery with Concord and our surrounding communities!

Sam’s journey into the world of ceramics began in 2014, following his separation from the Navy. Initially focused on pursuing a college degree using his GI Bill, Sam enrolled at Piedmont Virginia Community College, where an art advisor recommended ceramics as a fulfilling outlet. With no prior experience, he was captivated by the spacious and well-organized studio led by Professor Tom Clarkson, who not only taught him the fundamentals of pottery but also inspired his passion for the craft. Over the next two years, Sam immersed himself in ceramics, forming connections with fellow students and exploring the artistic community.
His transformative experience came in 2017 when he began an apprenticeship at Tye River Pottery under Kevin Crowe. During this time, Sam honed his skills by stoking wood-fired kilns, mixing clay, and creating pottery while establishing a foundation in the art that he had never anticipated. After nearly four years, he transitioned to a small town in New Hampshire, working with gas kilns and continuing to teach pottery classes. Passionate about sharing his knowledge, Sam is dedicated to fostering the growth of aspiring potters while continually refining his own techniques. He cherishes the history and lessons of ceramics, embracing the challenge and creativity it brings to his life.

She maintains that skills such as sketching, drawing, painting, and practiced observation not only enhance one’s intelligence but also enrich one’s enjoyment of life.

Natalie Lessard decided to be a puppeteer because they discovered it wasn’t physically possible for them to grow up to be a cartoon. Their curious nature led them to a lifetime of interdisciplinary arts, such as drawing, sculpting, painting, sewing, etc. Their goal has always been to create things that would bring more whimsy to the world.
For the better part of a decade they have been building and clothing puppets, curating, producing slams, and performing. They produced The Granite State Puppet Slam which was named Best of NH for New Cultural Event in 2019.
Natalie is excited to share the magic of puppet building and performance with the students of Kimball Jenkins.

I am a ceramics artist who works in mainly functional ware and sculptural vessels. My work reflects my passion and love of nature, and I often use materials from the earth such as seashells, rocks, sand and textured bark to add depth and personal connection to my pieces. I started my clay education in high school. I learned from three art teachers in my public school who all contributed to my passion for creating. Encouraged by their kindness, I earned my BFA at Colby-Sawyer College in New London New Hampshire, and studied under David Ernster and Jon Keenan, both master potters of New England. During that time, I also collaborated with the New Hampshire Institute of Art and the Sharon Art Center through community firings, pottery sales, and events. In the winter of 2016, I spent a week in Nepal teaching pottery to students at the Maya Universe Academy.
After graduation in 2017, I spent six years teaching in various public school settings as an art teacher. I worked with students of all ages and backgrounds. Teaching is an important part of my artistic practice. I use that time to inform my personal work but more importantly, developing relationships with others through art creates lasting connections and spreads compassion.
I have dedicated the last four years to developing a thriving ceramics program at Kimball Jenkins. It has grown tremendously under my care and I am proud to say we host over 50 pottery students and 12 independent artists each season.
Currently I am pursing my MFA from Maine College of Art and Design. Also, I hold the position of Chair of the New Hampshire Potters Guild. Within this role, I aim to build community through ceramics and offer educational experiences to those excited to learn more about the pottery scene in New Hampshire.

June Garen is a retired nurse who spent much of her career in the operating room—where precision and patience were essential, skills that come in handy with knitting needles too. She learned to knit at her grandmother’s side, a Dutch woman who knew that knitting wasn’t just a pastime, but a survival skill during long, cold winters.
Since then, June has happily knitted her way through life and shared the craft wherever she could—at local libraries, with community knitting groups, and even at the county jail. She loves that knitting invites experimentation with colors and textures and rewards you with the ultimate prize: wearable art. At Kimball Jenkins, she’s excited to bring her “Humble Knitting” class to anyone who wants to make something beautiful, useful, and maybe even a little bit quirky—one stitch at a time.
Corey fell in love with photography at the early age of 10, when his parents reluctantly handed him the role of family photographer during a trip to Disney World. That spark quickly grew into a lifelong passion. During high school and college, Corey worked in the photo lab at Concord Camera Store, developing prints for many of the area’s professional photographers. Spending every day immersed in the work of wedding and portrait photographers taught Corey so much about posing, composition, and storytelling. It also gave him the strong foundational understanding of exposure to convince himself he was ready to immerse himself in photography.
Corey began photographing portraits for friends and shooting family weddings on film. Once digital photography emerged and Corey taught himself Photoshop, he officially launched his own business, specializing in weddings and portraits.
Today, Corey focuses primarily on corporate headshots and family portraiture, but if the work involves people, you’ll still find him behind the lens, doing what he loves most.

For the past 25 years, Marty Kelly has worked as a full-time traditionally published children’s book author & illustrator. Realistic portrait work in watercolor and pencil has always been his passion, however. Marty’s current focus is split between creating highly realistic portrait art and working with stone, metal, and wood to create organic sculptures that surprise and delight viewers with materials being used in unexpected ways. Working in two entirely separate ways– tightly rendered realism in his portraiture and much rougher abstract work in stone– has afforded Marty time to explore ways the two disciplines can inform each other. Each way of creating makes Marty think in different ways and brings him joy when he’s making art.
