Grow House Grow

One of our own organizers, Katie Deedy, is the artist behind Grow House Grow. She started the studio in Brooklyn in 2007 to bring pattern making and storytelling together. Her handmade wallpapers and tiles draw on forgotten histories, folklore and a few family stories of her own. If a room needs some personality, start here.

Off Center Ceramics

Off Center Ceramics is a ceramic studio and member space in South Williamsburg, Brooklyn. Moses Starr opened it in 2025 as a smaller, slower place to work with clay. Never touched a wheel? Try a one-off class or the six-week beginner course. Already hooked? A membership gets you regular studio time and a community to come back to. Our favorite part is the attitude: you don’t have to be perfect to begin.

Haven Art Studio is a haven for artists in a creative environment, located behind the Port Washington train station on Long Island, NY. The studio offers a variety of artistic classes including pottery, hand building, jewelry, sewing, drawing & painting, at all levels as well as custom events like Ladies Night Out and Henna.

Each design evokes this playful and–at times–curious hybrid; from forgotten histories to magical folklore (and even some family stories of her own), Katie’s mission is to design products that have a tale to tell.
