The Arvada Center is always a great place to stop, they usually have two
shows going on simultaniously in the upper and lower galleries. At the
moment they have figurative shows on, not clay. But you can always stop
in the clay studio and have a look around - see the studio and kilns.
This weekend, Paul Lewing is giving a workshop at the "Center" and I'm
attending the workshop, can't wait!
Monday - Saturday I'm usually in the studio at the Artists on Santa Fe,
747 Santa Fe (1 1/2 blocks north of 6th and Santa Fe - it's easy to
find, go I-25 to 6th avenue east, from 6th Avenue go north 1/12 blocks
on Santa Fe) and I could steer you in the direrction of galleries in
Denver or anyone else there could too. So, if you're in Denver, and
can't find galleries, stop in and see us!
Hope you have a good time in Denver.

My sister-in-law and I both make pottery. We are heading to the Denver =
area. I have read on the list that the Arvada Center is a "don't miss" =
place to go. Are there any other sites that are exceptional to see =
while we take a day away from the crew and visit the pottery sites?
Thanks,
Lorri

Lorri,
There are a lot of great pottery shops/stores in Boulder, in the walking
district (which is, in itself, very much worth seeing). Also, do a web
search. There's lots and lots of good information on galleries, etc. I just
checked it out Monday, and was impressed. Downtown Denver is, I believe, the
name of the site I visited.

I live in the Metro-Denver area and in trying to name a few places, I found
that there are tooooooo many to itemize. But here are a few (not choosing
any above the other or above any not mentioned):
In the northwest area: the Arvada Center is good. It has a gallery as well
as a large studio area with several kilns. Along 38th and Tennyson to 44th
and Tennyson is a new artisan area, including a couple of pottery studios
and 7 galleries, "First Friday" art walk.
In the central downtown area: two adjoining areas with SEVERAL galleries in
each area. Larimer Square and Writer's Square.
To the east, in Aurora, there is the Bicentennial Art Center, a fairly large
studio offering classes and open studio space and includes several assorted
large kilns as well as a low fire salt kiln. In Tamarack Square, on Hampden
and Tamarack, is (I believe the name) Hooker Gallery, which has more pottery
than the Writer's Square site (that has more bronzes and paintings).
To the central and south west area are the two supply houses, Mile High
Ceramics and Laguna Clay. Both are worthwhile places to drop your wallet.
If you want a kiln, a clay body, a glaze, tools, a wheel..........
Did I leave you any time to spend with your family????
Have lots of fun.
