In the gallery of the main house, we will be viewing CD’s of everyone’s work on the second evening of each “Hands-on” workshop. We encourage you to bring a CD of your current work. By sharing your work with the other participants we all learn from each other.
I look forward to hosting a great workshop experience for you here at Pottery West.
