My name is Jan Rybczynski (Yawn Rib-chin-ski) and I am a multidisciplinary artist and designer from Boulder, Colorado. I am currently living and working in Johnstown, PA, participating in the inaugural year of the Passport Program at the Center for Metal Arts. I just finished the Core Fellowship at Penland School of Craft and In 2023, I graduated from the Rhode Island School of Design with a BFA in Furniture Design. I work across many mediums, but concentrate heavily in metal and wood using a wide range of techniques in both.
