The Dirt Bag

The Dirt Bag is the latest innovation coming out of the studio and into Pittsburgh homes - a clay kit for families to do together at home.

This kit includes all the materials, tools, tips, and inspiration to create and learn with clay. The Dirt Bag brings families together to be creative and learn about clay. After making art together, families can bring their creations to Union Project’s studio to be fired, get a Dirt Bag refill, and see artists at work in a community studio.

We are currently testing out The Dirt Bag with the help of more than 90 families.  Each family has taken a kit home to play with - and their feedback will be used to improve The Dirt Bag!

If you'd like to get involved and try out your very own Dirt Bag, please contact Jenna Vanden Brink (412.363.4550 x222)

This project supported in part by a Spark Award from The Sprout Fund. The Dirt Bag is also supported by Standard Ceramic Supply and Whole Foods Market.
