Specialties
Art classes, gallery, and events. We especially enjoy hosting bridal showers and birthday parties. Hand crafting a personalized functional or decorative piece is a fun way to celebrate a loved one.
Each month the studio throws an open party--sometimes two or three. If you would like a calendar of events and classes, please email or message us on our website.
History
Established in 2015.
The art studio opened in 2015, offering a rather eclectic selection of classes. They reflect Lisa's background in sculpture, digital media, ceramics, and DIY sensibility. We set up shop in a family owned building located in downtown Redlands. Tucker Works is a combination of Craig's psychotherapy office (next door) and Lisa's art studio. All of your art and psychotherapy needs can be met under one roof ;) Our businesses are separate, but we thought it would be fun to merge into one space--and it is! The art studio provides a place to explore your creativity and relax. A new calendar is posted on our website each month with new classes or feel free to call Lisa for more information.
Meet the Business Owner: Lisa T.
Lisa Tucker is a multidisciplinary artist, educator, and curator. She received her MFA in Studio Art from UC Irvine in 2007, where her focus was combining art, technology, and science into functional sculpture offering alternative systems of food production. Her interest in ceramics began while doing research for a project bringing scientific lab equipment into the kitchen. She fell in love with porcelain as a material while learning to throw and hand build the scientific devices.
Lisa currently teaches Art History, Still Photo History, Game Design, Animation, and Introduction to IT at local colleges and online for Southern New Hampshire University. Much of her work could be termed "social sculpture" and has been shown both locally and internationally. "Yogurt Liberation Front" was recently shown at the Wignall Museum of Contemporary Art and Museum of Latin American Art, Los Angeles. Her ceramic underwear series at UC Riverside is another recent exhibition.
