Out of ashes come beauty and life.

Cobb Mountain Art and Ecology Project was founded by Scott Parady. Scott specializes in wood-firing ceramics and has integrated regenerative land stewardship into this process. He envisioned an artist residency program where he could offer resident artists the chance to actively engage in this process as well and has worked over the last 20 years to make this vision a reality. He is a visionary artist who is committed to his land, reestablishing biodiversity and a healthy fire cycle in the forest, and participating in the worldwide movement of reinvigorating traditional wood kiln practices.
