Greetings all,=3D20
There is a major Ceramics Convention coming to Philadelphia at the end =3D
of March and we have several events planned. The National Council on =3D
Education in the Ceramic Arts (NCECA) will hold its annual convention at =
=3D
The PA convention center in Philadelphia March 31 to April 3. Since our =3D
studio is walking distance to the conference we are planning two =3D
pre-conference workshops and a Pottery showcase and sale during the =3D
conference.
PLEASE HELP US TO SPREAD THE WORD ABOUT THESE WORKSHOPS AS THEY ARE =3D
ALREADY FILLING.=3D20
Pasted below are the details.

I am hopeful that we will get to see many of our friends and former =3D
students from out of town at this time. If you have never been to =3D
Philadelphia before I will tell you that you can see more galleries and =3D
Art centers in ONE square mile (mostly walking distance) than you will =3D
see spread over entire states! Our own studio is just a five minute walk =
=3D
to the Philadelphia Museum of Art, with a world class collection. Soon I =
=3D
will be posting to our web site an insiders map to our favorite =3D
restaurants and pottery sites in our city. We will send you more info on =
=3D
the Potters Showcase as the time approaches (or see our web site now!)
Let us know if you have any other questions. We hope to see you in =3D
March!

Wishing you all Peace and Health in the New Year=3D20
