Hello Clayarters,

I'm happy to announce that Vince will be offering his "Handbuilding:
Tricks of the Trade" workshop in Fraser, Colorado this summer from June
16th - 20th. Cost for the 5 days is $250 per person. Here's a link for
more info on the workshop:

Fraser is 10 minutes from Winter Park and 1-1/2 hours up the mountain
from Denver. It's a beautiful area surrounded by National Forest.
There are miles of mountain bike and hiking trails and plenty of places
for camping. It's also 45 minutes from Rocky Mountain National Park.

Winter Park is a resort community with many amenities, a lot of lodging
options, wonderful restaurants and a fun night life. There is a
bike/walking path from Winter Park to Fraser and there are also a couple
of places to stay in Fraser. Here's a link to the Fraser Valley/Winter
Park Chamber of Commerce: http://www.winterpark-info.com/

If you have any questions or need help with finding a place to stay,
please let me know. I don't always monitor Clayart, but can always be
reached at palander@rkymtnhi.com. You can also reach Michelle Lawrence
at the Rec center at 970-726-8968.

I took a colored clay workshop from Vince several years ago and I can
tell you not only is he a wealth of information, he's an interesting,
fun and gracious teacher. I've no doubt everyone will have a great time.

Best regards,

Patty Alander
