| Get to Know the Kohler Arts/Industry Residency Program |
|
by Patti Gibbons

| The industrial technicians at Kohler make more than a desirable line of plumbing fixtures—they also impart their foundry skills to visual artists who are selected for the company's prestigious Arts/Industry residency program. In 1974, Kohler launched the program to forge collaborations between visiting artists and the industrial artisans at its factories. For nearly a half-century, Kohler has welcomed 500-plus artists and provides them with the opportunity to work alongside master ceramic and metal technicians in the company's pottery department, iron and brass foundries, and enamel shop. |
