About us
Welcome to Inferno Clay Studio NFP!
We are a women-led, artist-run, cooperative nonprofit organization committed to the longevity and accessibility of the ceramic arts in Rockford, Illinois.
Alyssa Noonen and Emily Rangel-Cascio founded Inferno studio in April 2024 in their dedication to fostering the growth of the ceramics community in their hometown.
Inferno provides professional studio space for Resident Artists, fosters growth through mentorships, and hosts workshops for community members of all skill levels to explore their creativity. Additionally, we offer Community Kiln program to support local ceramic artists as well as a gallery space for clay artists to exhibit and sell their work.
