About Us
Archie Bray Foundation for the Ceramic Arts, located in Helena, Montana, has been actively supporting the artistic pursuit of ceramics for more than 70 years through a variety of programs. These range from Artist Residencies to Galleries & Exhibitions to Community Education & Engagement to a fully stocked ceramic store - The Clay Business. The Bray believes that quality in ceramics is achieved through promoting and practicing inclusion, equity, and diversity. A full representation of thought, education, geography, culture, identity and life experiences, all lead to artists' ability to create thought-provoking and vital work. When we share and embrace our unique perspectives and experiences, we enhance the quality of each other's work.

The Bray is committed to opening access, opportunity, and advancement to people from groups that have been under-represented in terms of employment, recognition, funding, and institutional support. This requires The Bray to consider and remove systemic barriers that make participation in its programs difficult for any group or individual. We are also evaluating and implementing ways to expand the processes, activities, and decision/policy-making to ensure equal access to opportunities and resources. The Bray has begun to implement a series of steps that will fulfill our commitments to diversity, equity, and inclusion, which are found in The Bray Strategic Plan. We continue to engage in a dynamic strategic planning process that regularly reviews and improves the action steps taken and works to include those communities that have historically lacked access to participation in the arts.
