Just to give you a little taste of what you're missing out on, we're giving you a digital tour of the Craft Centre--check out everything we have to offer!
Welcome to the Studio Arts & Craft Centre, or SACC if you want to sound really cool--we're on the ground floor of the Union and open at noon.
We're much more than just a hallway--walk a little further and you'll discover the studio. To the left and you'll find tables for ceramics, a slab roller, extruder, glaze room, 3 kilns, and 8 pottery wheels.
Stop in to use one of the 8 pottery wheels--you can even check out all the tools you'll need to make that perfect piece.
To the right you'll find the general studio area with a brand new screen printing wash-out sink, 6 work tables, a light table for photo negatives, rentable lockers, and the jewelry & metalsmithing area.
Onto the photo area--here is the main hallway. The yellow lockers are available for members to rent. At the end of the hall you'll find matte cutters, a photo drying rack, a negative dryer, and more.
There are 3 film processing/screen pr
ocessing rooms complete with all the tools and chemicals needed--just check them out at the front desk!
The B&W film darkroom has plenty of enlargers and all the tools you'll need. If the Mitchell lab is full or you just want to play around with your photos, the lab is all yours.
The SACC has a variety of tools for check-out at the front desk. Film processing kits, photo printing kits, sewing machines/supplies, clay buckets w/tools, screenprinting tools, and plenty of jewelry/metalsmithing tools are all available to members at no cost.
There are also a bunch of supplies available for purchase including red and white clay, clay tool kits, poster board/foam board, B&W film, photo paper, screens, and screenprinting inks.
Now that you've gotten a taste of the SACC, stop in and ask the clerk at the front desk for a real tour and get started on you projects! Remember, UWM students have a free membership and community members, staff, faculty, and alumni are always welcome for a membership fee!
See you soon!
