I am currently teaching locally though Eric Beyers Studio outside of Cazenovia . Please contact me if you would like more information regarding these classes. .
I am really excited to be teaching for a 5th year in the national virtual/in-person Cohorts.Art program which starts it's new group every January. It is a year long program intended for people who have their own studios but need guidance and structure to help their growth. Please visit https://cohorts.art/what-and-how for more information on this program.
In 2026 Cohorts.Art program I will be taking on six students for a year of mentorship. This will involve regular meetings twice a month, group meetings once a month and an in-person workshop for a week. This is a powerful teaching model and method to help developing artists find their voice, achieve professional goals, and build a nurturing community. It's an established program that is empowering artists and having tremendous success.
Although I teach regularly through classes, and occasionally in academia, this is different. The mentor-mentee relationship is just that: relational. A year-long program gives us time to build trust and evolve your work through a lot of iterations. The one-on-one nature of most of our meetings will allow me to meet you at your level, and we can work on achieving your goals. In addition, the small group format allows us to envision and complete group projects, and offers an instant community of committed, intrinsically motivated partners in the process.
So if you are looking to next-level the work you are making, if you are transitioning into becoming a more professional artist, if you need help clarifying your ideas and you have regular studio access, this program is for you.
Cohorts.Art is entering its sixth year. It started in the clay community and is now branching into other craft fields. You can see my information on the Cohorts.Art Website here
Check out the other mentors as well–you may know some of them. They are a great group of professional artists, whose expertise you can harness. You’ll also find some wonderful testimonials from past students on the website. Cheers! Liz
