While Sue Hetrick received most of her formal training in art from HACC,
Central Pa’s Community College; she continues to learn from her own
experimentation. Her ceramic pieces are crafted to be functional works of
whimsy. The same can be said for her glass fused and slumped pieces, which
tend to be her favored creations. The addition of wire wrapping make the
glass pieces uniquely her own. Whether ceramic or glass, Sue crafts works of
art that incorporate fun into function.
Wine
Bottle Cheese Plates
   
These unique serving dishes are excellent for entertaining and spreading good
cheer; always a great conversation starter. Bottles display beautifully while
not in use. The top is raised slightly, making it easy to handle. Included with every cheese plate is a delicately wire
wrapped utensil holder and serving knife. Each has its own unique
personality and
is signed by the artist who created it.

Radius
opened with an elegant reception in February 2006 |
It’s a win-win
situation for the Pennsylvania Historical Museum Commission, The State Museum’s
parent organization, and
HACC, Central Pennsylvania’s Community College. The
Commission had been entertaining proposals for an outside group to operate the
gift shop here at The State Museum.
HACC had been seeking an outlet for the
high-end crafts produced by students of its Contemporary Crafts Marketing
program. Now, the two have entered into a partnership that satisfies both
organizations’ goals and provides a retail opportunity for museum visitors.
HACC now operates
the shop, named Radius,
HACC Gallery and
Museum Shop, which serves as a sales
outlet for merchandise produced by
HACC crafts artisans as well as select items
recruited for consignment sales from the
HACC Crafts program and artisans from
the Pennsylvania Guild of Craftsmen. All merchandise is in keeping with the
Pennsylvania Historical Museum Commission’s mission to represent Pennsylvania
state interests, artists and crafts. Commissioned work also may be available.
Bring home a piece of Pennsylvania; there's
something for everyone.
