Mud Girls
Presented by Dorrie Papademetriou
MudGirls Studios is a non-profit organization dedicated to providing opportunities in art and entrepreneurship to economically disadvantaged and at-risk women by providing training and skills to transition out of poverty and onto a pathway of self-sufficiency. Through the creation and sale of functional art and aesthetic utilitarian objects women will gain a source of long-term supplemental income. Join us to learn more about their important mission.
Dorrie Papademetriou has always been passionate about two things: art and social change. After growing up in Toledo, Ohio, and earning her Bachelor of Fine Arts from Bowling Green State University, Dorrie moved to Boston to begin her career in creative design and art direction. Having worked in the fashion industry with icons like Christy Turlington, and Cindy Crawford, she art directed national and international ad campaigns for brands like Louis Vuitton, Legal Seafood, and Infiniti.
Dorrie served as curator of the Noyes Museum of Art of Stockton University curating exhibitions of nationally and internationally recognized artists. One of Dorrie’s most meaningful exhibitions was Finding Home, that featured and worked with the homeless of Atlantic City.
In 2016 Dorrie founded MudGirls Studios, a ceramic art studio that creates functional pottery for everyday use. Mudgirls Studios celebrates a love of clay, the creative process and the chance for women to transform their own lives.
