Class is taught by Jen Martin. She has been making art her whole life, but found a passion for it while going to Kokomo High School. Through the classes KHS offered Jen found a passion for 3D art, specifically ceramics and sculpture. Through a mentorship with the late Richard Evans, Jen began teaching others. After graduating high school Jen went on to study at various Universities and art schools including Indiana Wesleyan, IUK, and Herron School for the Arts. During her time at these schools she continued to teach others about her passions as a TA.
