Staff:
Keelie Wurster – Owner
Keelie obtained a business degree with a minor in psychology from Ashland University in 2003. She worked with the YMCA for over 11 years creating programs and working with children and the community. Although, she doesn’t have any formal art training she loves to create, learn and “try everything”. Her love of travel and exploring has helped with the vision of the TCC. When she is not at the TCC, she can be found on the family farm, in her workshop or hanging out with her kiddos.
Megan Gallaway – Lead Administrator
Hi, I’m Megan! I have a degree in Multi-Visual Arts and a big passion for teaching and creating. At the Tin Can Chandelier, I love helping others express themselves through art and watching their projects come to life. One of my favorite parts of the job is connecting with local artists and bringing unique workshops and classes to our community.
Outside of the studio, you’ll find me managing some fun and creative spaces like our Airbnb properties and The Funky Junkyard. I also love spending time with my amazing boyfriend Nate, my awesome son Easton, and my sweet daughter Sloan .
Amanda Kenscan- Lead Ceramicist
Amanda is a jack of all trades! She has a great eye for unique builds or abstract paintings. Her patience and attention to detail is impressive. She mostly teaches ceramics (wheel lessons and hand building).
Tanner Frazier – Stained Glass
Tanner has a Bachelor’s in Science in Architecture from the University of Cincinnati. During that program, she interned in Connecticut, New York City, and San Diego. In San Diego she was introduced to Stained Glass, and mosaics. Since graduating in 2017, she has gone abroad to France for a year as an Au Pair. In France she looked after three children. Upon return to the United States, she has come to the realization that office jobs aren’t for her. That’s where the Tin Can comes in. Since discovering the Tin Can in 2018, she has enjoyed playing with ceramics, stained glass, and helping people figure out to to make their imagination into reality. She believes that everyone is capable of creating something that they can be proud of. When she’s not here she is also a nanny for a little boy in Wooster, and mom to a little boy, Flynn.
Jessica Mollet- Multi Media
Hi, I’m Jessica! I’m a multidisciplinary artist with a love for exploring just about every medium I can get my hands on—from drawing and painting to pottery and stained glass.
You’ll usually find me around the studio, but when I’m not here, I’m at home with my three pets listening to music or getting into the latest show or movie, and diving into something creative—whether that’s art, video games, or doing my makeup.
Ginger Stoops- Multi Media
Ginger has joined us fairly recently, and is excited about everything there is to learn about and explore at the Tin Can Chandelier! She is a multi-technique fiber artist who loves to teach. Her fiber arts journey began at age 8 when she knitted her first pair of slippers. At age 20, she was introduced to spinning, which was the gateway to weaving, needle felt, wet felt, boro stitching, and many other fiber art techniques. She loves exploring the fiber arts techniques of ancient cultures all over the world. She is a regionally-acclaimed fiber arts instructor and teaches classes at juried shows around the area.
When she is not teaching, she is busy exhibiting her work in local art shows and selling her pieces at art shows and farmer’s markets in the local area. Ginger spent the first 25 years of her working life as an analytical chemist and brings this experience to teaching others how to make handmade soap, and all-natural cosmetics.
