About

  • Heidi McKenzie is an emerging ceramic artist currently enrolled in the second year of the Sheridan Advanced Diploma in Crafts and Design Ceramics Program.  In 2009, Heidi rekindled her childhood passion for clay and at mid-life embarked on a three-month residency at the foothills of the Himalayas in India with Mansimran Singh, student of iconic British potter, Bernard Leach.  In the spring of 2010, Heidi left behind her arts consultancy practice and fully committed to her new life path as an artist. No stranger to the arts, Heidi has been a manager and creative producer with over twenty years’ experience in the non-for-profit arts sector. She has worked primarily in the music industry, in architecture, broadcasting, radio and film production and continues to practice as a freelance arts journalist.
