About
The Ember Arts Center is conceived as a kiln — a vessel of creative heat. Walls of hand-laid fired brick vary in tone from amber to deep ochre, catching the low sun and glowing with an inner warmth at dusk. Inside, double-height studios open onto sheltered courtyard gardens where artists can work in natural light or collaborate outdoors.
