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. currently offers uncommon hands-on art classes, open studio time, pop-up workshops, singular artist-made furniture, fashion and art objects, and more! 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!
What differentiates H.A.C. from other studio schools is that we are co-directed by working contemporary artists and we emphasize fun and affordability with NOTAFLOF spots per every class. Our program includes niche processes such as copper enameling, pysanky on goose eggs, imaginative beadwork classes, and more.
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 FARAG’S, 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
