The board officially voted to keep our studios open and saved the program from closure. I am overwhelmed knowing that these doors will remain unlocked for our students because you refused to let them go. We will stay vigilant to ensure this commitment holds, but for now we celebrate this …

This program that has meant so much to the community appears to be in extreme jeopardy and the situation has repercussions not only for ceramics and other humanities classes, but also reaches into the community that the college claims to serve.
Our great fear is that ceramic students, numbering more than 500 every semester, will soon find a padlock on the doors leading to the Ceramics Studios of OCC We hope to have an opportunity to preserve this program whichhas been a gem in the community. Our plan is to educate the Board and the Chancellor as to the merits, financial stability and social diversity of the program as well as quell the misconceiptions regarding the outstanding program. We need your help!!

We are grinding toward one thousand signatures and I need you to push this link to your social media circles right now. Seeing this momentum builds the pressure we need to keep those studio doors open for the hundreds of students who rely on this program.

I spent years in those studios and the thought of them going dark keeps me up at night. Please send this link to three people who believe in arts education so we can hit our goal and show the board we are not backing down.

So many memories in that studio. Hope we can save it before june 18th.
Ridiculous that they are even thinking about cutting this. The studio is always packed. Keep ceramics alive!!
This program is the only reason I even enjoy going to class. Please dont close it!
OCC needs to keep this studio open. My wife has taken classes here for years and loves it.
DONT DO IT OCC
Save the OCC Ceramics department!!!
