Rick Noyes has a minor in art from Oregon College of Education. He has been involved with the
studio from 1998 – 2004. He took a break during the closing of the 12th Street location where he was the Saturday Monitor and rejoined the new Willamette Art Center in 2009. He has experience in Raku,
hand-building, and wheel throwing.

Rick would like to see the WAC Studio move to a more permanent location where there would be more space with the ability to offer more people in the area a chance to work at and learn the skills of pottery. –
