Pots are Everywhere!
Things are really busy at The Village Potters. There are pots everywhere! Kilns are firing up and then cooling down. No one wanted to fire during this heat wave, but The Southern Highland Craft Fair is next week starting July 19th and we all are going to be there.

We will be exhibiting our latest work. Judi’s sculpture, Cat’s Doggie bowls and amazing teapots, and Sarah’s altered forms and some really big pots for that extra special place will all be spotlighted in this show.
Our Teaching Center will have a booth too. We will have brochures and information available for all you aspiring potters out there. Classes are already filling up for August. Village Potter’s Melanie, Lori and Karen will be available at the booth to answer questions and register new students.
