Just wanted to pass on the we still have spots open for mel's workshop
series from March 7-12. I will repeat the information below, for those
that may have missed it previously. But I also wanted to let folks know
that on weekend after the workshop, we will be building and firing the
miniature MFT, replacing elements in the Skutt 1027 AND spraying and
dipping everything in sight with ITC. So, if any of you Clayarters are
in the area, and want to participate in an informal workshop on these
topics, feel free to stop by. Email me privately for more details.

This is an intense hands-on workshop, held in my studio at Murrells
Inlet Community Center, with one wheel per student. For more
information, contact me at lleary@sccoast.net or at (803)237-1913.
I will be glad to steer participants toward hotels, motels and
campgrounds. We are an hour and 20 minutes north of Charleston, and 30
minutes south of Myrtle Beach. There are also lots of things to do
around here, many nature and history related. Also, fishing, crabbing
and golfing are really big in this area.
Hope to see you there,
