Born and raised in Columbus, Ohio, Quinn Hanna has had the honor of growing up in a diverse community of people of all ethnicities, abilities, sexualities, and gender identities. 

Aside from her work as a functional potter and teacher to people of all abilities and identities, Quinn is very passionate about sculpture and derives inspiration from animal and plant life she finds abundant in midwestern America. Quinn’s works have been featured in many group exhibitions across Ohio and beyond, including the Ohio Craft Museum’s Best of 2024/2025 and The Strictly Functional Pottery National Exhibition in Lancaster, PA (2024).

Quinn is currently a Ceramics Artist-in-Residence at Hope Center for Arts and Technology where she is continuing her work exploring themes related to experiences influenced by having Sensory Processing Disorder. Upon this exploration, Quinn plans to attend graduate school to attain her Masters in Fine Arts with the goal of teaching at the collegiate level.
