Lindsey McIntosh on Building Community Through the Clay Center

In this episode of the Kanawha Valley Hustlers podcast, I talk with Lindsey McIntosh about the Friends of Clay, a volunteer group that supports the Clay Center in Charleston. She explains that the Clay Center is a museum and interactive space with exhibits, concerts, Broadway shows, and educational programs for all ages. Friends of Clay helps fund events like Carnival and supports STEAM education through donations and volunteer efforts. Lindsey shares how membership includes perks like free concert tickets and early access to popular events. We talk about the importance of art in Charleston and how the Clay Center connects art with science and learning. Programs like Water Works and Clay to Go give kids hands-on experiences with STEM concepts. She encourages anyone interested to visit the Clay Center website to learn more or sign up for a membership.
