MEGAN PREDIGER (MUGGY)

Lead Instructor she/her

Muggy is a full-time potter (part-time spin instructor) living and working in Vancouver, BC. She first began working with clay at Fairview studios in Calgary under the instruction of Daaven Green and Dave Settles. Her primary focus is creating art you can live and interact with in meaningful ways, leading her practice into functional ware and lighting. Through apprenticeship, Mugs has become well-immersed in both wheel throwing, hand-building, glaze making, and all the messy bits it takes to make a studio function, She transitioned to teaching and making full-time in December of 2021.

As an instructor, she brings lightness into every class she teaches, fostering a sense of community and kinship with her students. She accommodates versatility in throwing approaches and prioritizes one-to-one engagement. 

"Báhoo has been a place for me to flourish as both an instructor and an artist. Teaching others has been a deeply reflective practice for me, being challenged to find new and better ways to explain the how and why of different techniques, has been so pivotal in expanding my skills in my personal practice. Clay has so many lessons to teach about failure, attachment, expectations, and kindness to ourselves. There is such a deep gratification in guiding someone discovering this new medium and seeing them feel challenged by it and watching them grow through it"
