Archie Bray Foundation for the Ceramic Arts
The Archie Bray Foundation for the Ceramic Arts is a public, nonprofit, educational institution founded in 1951 by brickmaker Archie Bray, who intended it to be “a place to make available for all who are seriously interested in any of the branches of the ceramic arts, a fine place to work.” Its primary mission is to provide an environment that stimulates creative work in ceramics.
The Bray, located in Helena, Montana, is listed on the National Register of Historic Places and recognized as a gathering place for emerging and established ceramic artists with a dynamic arts community created by the resident artists that come to the Bray to work, share experiences, and explore new ideas.
