Pottery Show and Demonstration this Saturday, Aug. 28







Two of our favorite local potters will be setting up in the gardens at Pomegranate tomorrow, August 28, for a show of their latest work and demonstration of throwing and glazing techniques. Steve Provence and Eleanor Murphey, both professional potters based in Bend, are bringing their newest pieces for our annual show. Come talk to the artists and buy from them directly – there's nothing more satisfying than having a wonderful new piece of art for your home!

They're bringing a potter's wheel and glazing station: come try your hand at the wheel (hint: if you've never done it, it's harder than you think, but also lots of fun). Eleanor will also bring a limited number of bisqueware mugs for purchase: she'll show you how she creates her wax resist designs so that you can design and glaze your mug. Then she'll fire your masterpiece and have it ready for you later. What fun! Last year we had a blast at this show: can't wait to see what they're bringing this time... Pottery show from 11-5/shop is open 10-5:30. Find us at 120 NE River Mall Avenue, just across from the north end of Macy's.
