For those of you who plan ahead, Vince and I have just finalized the
dates and subject of his workshop offering at my place next summer.
This year Vince will offer his handbuilding workshop, "Handbuilding:
Tricks of the Trade". The dates will be July 26th through 30th,
2004.

For complete information on this workshop go to my website. A direct
link would be:

If any of you would be so kind as to print out what you find there
and post the information where it might be more generally seen, that
would be appreciated. Publicity is not my strong suit, and any help
I can get in that area is delperately needed. Every year, since
1997, Vince has come out for at least one workshop here in Summer.
Especially this coming summer, after all he has helped me through,
with my operation and the attempt to "come back" through building a
new kiln that he designed and guided me through construction of. I'd
like to honour him by having a good turnout for the workshop. From
what Vince tells me, workshops here are a little less formal, a
little more intimate than the normal venue. It's always a good
experience for those who make it here. I just need to do a better
job of getting the word out...
