This Workshop will take place at the studio of Barbara Bailey

Visiting artist, Susie Vey will conduct a workshop focusing on making lidded
pots. This workshop will take place on two consecutive Saturdays and
includes throwing demonstrations of five different types of lids with the pots they
fit. These pieces will be trimmed and finished the following Saturday with a
demonstration of a few simple decorative techniques to create pieces that work
aesthetically as well as functionally. A collection of lidded vessels by a
variety of clay artists will give participants the opportunity to take a close
look at other potter's work. Please join us to expand your knowledge of
techniques to make your own unique pots.
