Scott -
Ours is not specifically a production pottery program, but we certainly
allow and encourage those students aiming towards pottery production. Most
schools cannot handle the volume involved in learning production, but we
love it. I did studio production in California for ten years, and although
I chose not to continue that as a career, I can certainly pass on a lot of
the tricks.

To find out more about our facility and programs, please visit my website
listed below, and that will also lead you to the Tennessee Tech University
and Appalachian Center for Craft websites. Email me with any questions or
comments.
Best wishes -

I'm looking for possible 'production' or 'studio' pottery courses.....either
in U.S. or England...I want to be somewhere where I can develop my style,
improve my skills, experiment, work like mad, and end up as a decent (if not
fantastic) working potter.Any suggestions???
