The Randall Chair was established in 2007 to honor the legacy of artist and educator Theodore Randall, remembered as the architect of the School of Art and Design at Alfred and a significant artist and organizer in the field of ceramic art.

The Division of Ceramic Art seeks a ceramic sculptor with a robust practice and strong teaching abilities who can dialogue with various constituencies across the School of Art and Design. The recipient of the Theodore Randall Chair will teach one upper-division course and advise graduate students in ceramic art, make a public presentation on their work and at the conclusion of their residency mount an informal exhibition of their work. The Randall Chair will receive a private studio, a research stipend and 24-hour access to a renowned ceramic facility. Round-trip travel expenses to and from Alfred and housing will also be provided. The salary is competitive. See http://www.alfredceramics.com/ for information on current activities in the Division of Ceramic Art.
