Artists In Residence

2025 Fine Arts Fiesta Artist In Residence

Kim Allen Gleed has been working in ceramics for over 20 years. She got her start in Binghamton, NY at Roberson Clayworks, taking a class and falling in love with pottery in 1997. She continued her studies and was brought on as a studio apprentice there, where she then worked for ten years. Kim took a little time away from pottery when her children were small, but returned to the Art Center in Mechanicsburg, PA where she rekindled her love with the wheel. She teaches and works as a studio tech there, and also teaches classes at Mud Luv Pottery Studio in Carlisle, PA. She is passionate about introducing new potters to this beautiful and therapeutic art form. Growing up in Mountaintop and attending Fine Arts Fiesta for many years, Kim is delighted and honored to be joining the festival as potter-in-residence.
