Clarice Allgood is a functional potter and teaching artist based in Minneapolis, Minnesota. An unconventional ceramic history of workshops, open studios, and unofficial residencies led Allgood to Minnesota in 2018. In 2019, she graduated from the advanced certificate program MN NICE (Minnesota New Institute for Ceramic Education) and as of 2020 she is a Fogelberg Studio Fellow at Northern Clay Center. She’s particularly fond of making tools. Some are tools of conviviality, some support activities of engaged solitude such as knitting, gardening, reading, and cooking. She teaches at Northern Clay Center, White Bear Center for the Arts, and Minnetonka Center for the Arts.
