In the summer of 2019 Mount Sequoyah turned rooms of Sequoyah Hall, a 1920s building on the hill above Fayetteville, into artist studios, and by director Jessica DeBari's account to Arkansas Art Scene, local artists took every one within a month. The hall has held working artists year-round since. Beside the studios runs a members' clay studio that never closes to them: ten wheels, a slab roller and an extruder, glazes on hand, and a cone 6 electric firing each week, for $100 a month if you already know your way around a wheel. Downstairs, the Great Room on the south-facing first floor doubles as Sequoyah Hall Gallery, fitting about 60 for an opening; receptions fall on Fridays, 6 to 8 pm. Above it all, the fourth floor, which DeBari calls the highest point in Fayetteville, stood empty in 2023 for want of the money to bring it to code, as she told Arkansas Art Scene: the studios filled as fast as they opened, and the next floor up waited on funding. Go on a Friday evening for the show. The studios and the kilns are for the artists who hold them, not for walking in.
