Haley Hanson Ceramics

Haley Hanson is a Missoula-based artist whose work is infused with whimsy and a deep love for the natural world. Often inspired by wildlife, her pieces invite connection through playful forms and earthy textures. She is especially drawn to the collaborative, hands-on nature of wood firing, where hard work, teamwork, and the unpredictable beauty of the process can come together in surprising and satisfying ways. It’s messy and dynamic - just the way she likes it.

Outside of her home studio, Haley is the Executive Director of the Missoula Urban Demonstration Project (MUD), where she helps put tools and sustainable living skills into the hands of Missoulians. She serves on the Board of the Clay Studio of Missoula, helping shape the future of a local organization that first sparked her interest in
ceramics.
