Sadie is a multidisciplinary artist and community arts organizer. Rooted in process and craft tradition, she likes to work with recycled, repurposed, historic, or foraged materials, often pushing them to their limits. Her practice explores making as a relational act—one that builds connections between people, materials, ideas, and place.

About

Sadie Winter grew up on a ranch in Wyoming, immersed in the DIY aesthetic and frontier ingenuity of outsider art. She discovered clay as a production potter for Piney Creek Pottery from 2015-2017, finding joy in the physical and creative labor and drawing strength from the landscape and historical detritus of the West.

Sadie has attended work-study programs at Penland School of Craft, interned at Anderson Ranch Arts center, received a post-baccalaureate from Utah State University in ceramics, and worked and interned at the Archie Bray Foundation for the Ceramic Arts.

Currently, Sadie is the kiln technician at Siren Studios in Laramie, Wyoming and maintains a studio practice and business out of the Laramie Plains Civic Center. She serves on the executive board of the Laramie Public Art Coalition, co-founded the printmaking and fiber studio Jackrabbit Workshop, and is extremely passionate about making arts and arts education accessible to all.
