As far back as I can remember, I’ve always loved pottery. My mom took a few classes when we were little kids, so I grew up with a random assortment of handmade pots to use. Every time I sat down to use one, it amazed me that she had created this precious piece with her own hands. When I had the opportunity to give it a try in high school, I couldn’t resist. I fell hard for clay and wanted to pursue it professionally but as so many teens do, I got nervous and went with a ‘safer’ route.
Join the Arts Station in the theatre for a fun Elk River collaboration to paint a river themed mug.
The Elk River Alliance will teach us all about river systems and inspire our creative minds. Pottery Manager Caroline will teach you the basics of pottery painting to create your one of a kind mug!
Elk River Alliance and FDAC members get a special member discount.
It’s become our habit to use the turning of the year as a time to reflect, to appraise the past trip around the sun, and attempt to implement changes we feel need to happen in our lives. I often find myself ready for a new outlook, and—even though we are typically heading into the coldest part of winter—something to look forward to in my life.
