In 2014, Red Lodge Clay Center established the DO GOOD-MJ Wood Memorial Short-Term Residency as an underwritten residency intended to support ceramic artists who wished to develop a body of work with a socially-conscious spirit and a strong sense of community engagement. Since then, RLCC has hosted 6 Do Good residents, all who work towards making positive social change. This exhibition, Small Changes, recognizes the small impact that attempting to do good in the world creates. Over time, small changes can have a powerful collective impact.

As MJ Do Good Residents at RLCC, each artist worked on a specific project. This exhibition will celebrate these artist as makers, and will feature their current utilitarian, sculptural, and small installation work. Participating artists include  Chotsani Elaine Dean, Amanda Leigh Evans, Jill Foote-Hutton, Jeni Hansen Gard,  Tammy Marinuzzi, Ciara Newton, and Casey Whittier.
