Adrian, MI – Ten new potter’s wheels are in the hands of Adrian College students after the Maurice and Dorothy Stubnitz Foundation recently donated $15,000 to the college’s studio art program.
Travis Erxleben, Adrian College Assistant Professor of ceramics and 3D design, said the new potter’s wheels will immediately improve the quality of the students’ classroom experience in the Foundations of Ceramics course.
Erxleben says that their current pottery wheels were over 35 years old and in desperate need of replacement.
Jake Docking, Adrian College Dean of Retention and Enrollment Services, applied for the grant, noting the Maurice and Dorothy Stubnitz Foundation generously supports a wide range of charitable endeavors, including education, the arts, environmental and humanitarian causes, conservation, and other philanthropic initiatives.
