Making mugs is something all ceramic artists take comfort\, joy\, and pride in\, each for their own reasons. This is not unlike living in Reno and Northern Nevada\, where we delight in Reno each in our own way\, making it our own\, stamping it with our signature. But our individual marks\, left on mugs\, left on our town\, can really only be understood when seen as a whole\, as if we’re all working towards the same unknown goal. \nOur mugs represent what Reno means to us\, the storied past\, shared present\, and an always uncertain but collaborative and communal future. Fill your cup up with whatever you want\, for what you get out of Reno is a magnification and reflection of what you put in. \n“The Wedge Ceramics Studio was started in September 2011 by Sutter and Samantha Stremmel. Moving back to Reno after graduating from Montana State University\, they bemoaned the fact there was no place to play with clay unless you were currently institutionalized in school or classes.” \n“Over a decade later\, we have become an institution ourselves. We are an ever growing\, always dynamic\, entropic studio in a 5000 sq. ft. industrial warehouse turned ceramics studio. Sam and Sutter now work together to operate their respective\, neighboring businesses\, the Wedge and Sierra Water\, an indoor plant shop next door in the warehouse at 2055 Dickerson Rd. We are excited to be a part of Dickerson Road’s family of artists.” \nTo learn more about what The Wedge offers\, please visit: https://www.thewedgeceramics.com/ \nGallery East\, located in McKinley Arts & Culture Center is one of three galleries operated by the City of Reno.

This exhibition honors those lived experiences by creating space for artists of all backgrounds to speak directly to the queer community—past\, present\, and future—through words and images meant to be held\, sent\, and remembered. \nPostcards From the Edge (of Nevada) is not just a collection of artworks\, but a living archive of care. Each postcard becomes a gesture of solidarity\, a reminder that even at the edge\, we are not alone. \n“At Our Center\, we are dedicated to creating and supporting inclusive programs for the entire LGBTQ+ community.
