In 2026, Public Ceramics is expanding its programming to include a Winter Praxis session. The Praxis fellowship will allow one former PCF fellow to further refine and develop their practice via a 3-month membership at Gasworks NYC. 

Importantly: this is a beta launch of the program. The ideal fellow will help us develop what this program could look like and how best we can support future fellows in this position.   

Applications for the Winter 2026 Praxis (February 1-April 30, 2026) are due by December 20, 2025.
