Our Story:
At Fired Up Arts, we believe creativity is a journey that enriches lives & builds communities. Founded in 2017 by Tim & Havah Felker, our creative arts business offers a variety of art classes for students & adults, with a special focus on ceramics. However, our passion extends to many other art forms, making Fired Up Arts a vibrant hub for artistic expression.
Tim & Havah Felker are more than just the founders of Fired Up Arts; they are the heart & soul of our community. As pastors of Father’s House OC church in Huntington Beach, CA, they have dedicated their lives to inspiring & uplifting others through creativity, faith, & service. Their commitment to foster care & adoption reflects their deep love & compassion for children & families.
Tim’s journey into the world of ceramics began when he was 15 years old as a freshman in high school; he later went on to advance his skills at Orange Coast College (OCC). His dedication to his craft allowed him to start selling his work and sharing his passion with others. Havah’s academic journey led her to Vanguard University, where she earned her BA in Liberal Studies & a graduate degree in education. Together they navigated their early years of marriage & studies, with Tim also pursuing his calling to ministry at Vanguard.
For over 20 years, Tim & Havah have embraced life together, using their creative talents to craft beautiful works of art & inspire those around them. Whether they’re teaching students in the ceramics studio, coaching their children’s sports teams, or engaging with their church community, Tim & Havah are dedicated to living life fully & creatively.
In a typical week, you might find the Felkers at a pop-up craft sale, hosting a neighborhood gathering, enjoying the beach with their five children, or teaching & mentoring at the studio. At Fired Up Arts, we are committed to fostering a vibrant, creative community where everyone is encouraged to explore their artistic potential & live an abundant, creative life.
Join us at Fired Up Arts & let’s create something beautiful together!
