EARTH. WATER. AIR. FIRE. 
All four of these elements are essential for creating ceramic art. 
​
Humble Beginnings.
​4 Elements Studio was born out of a love for ceramics, a passion for the arts, and an empty basement.  Originally formed in 2008 as a ceramic studio by Ceramic artist Vartan Poghosian, 4 Elements Studio has since expanded into a community arts center, obtaining non-profit status in 2019. Initial offerings included ceramics classes and exhibitions; however, requests from the community for additional art programming increased over time. To meet the needs of our community, 4 Elements expanded its offerings.
