HOuse of art and craft

House of Art & Craft (H.A.C.) is an anti-institutional art school for adults founded by artist Rainen Knecht, and co-directed by artist/poet Morgan Ritter. H.A.C. offers uncommon art classes, workshops, private art parties, and professional practice services for artists. We are unaccredited, affordable, and approachable. Our programs are facilitated by practicing artists and educators from many backgrounds, including established contemporary artists to folk artists living on the fringe! 

Home-spun and hands-on, we believe art making doesn’t require a “genius” artist or a performance of skills. In fact, we believe art is for everyone. H.A.C. asserts that we can learn best through play.

H.A.C. is a space for collectivity. Here you can directly connect with the uniquely experimental and diverse working artists in the Pacific Northwest region. 

H.A.C. is currently a bit rogue – headquartered partially within a functioning artist studio in SE Portland, Oregon, and in pop-ups at it’s just a feeling, hide & seek gallery, art galleries, cafes, libraries, workplaces, and beyond.

H.A.C. seasonally releases one-off art objects, furniture and garments. Follow along @house_of_art_and_craft_pdx
