9am-4pm Potters of Madison County Potter's Market- Marshall, NC My personal favorite show of the year!!! In the last decade, the quiet mountain towns and townships of Madison County, North Carolina have attracted an ever growing community of artists and craftspeople. Madison County’s rich rural and agricultural history and its inhabitants’ collective respect for tradition and craft make a natural setting for the production of handmade functional and sculptural ceramics. The Potters of Madison County was created in order to unite, acknowledge and support the skilled and diverse group of men and women currently creating work in Madison County, North Carolina.

Teaching at the John C. Campbell Folk School in Brasstown Class: Gas firing Focus on making functionally influenced work using a combination of wheel thrown and hand built concepts. Make pots for the table by using thrown parts and assembling pieces formed from the wheel, slab, and coil. We will discuss and explore methods of surface texture and finishing that will emphasize the form of the pots created. Designed to teach concepts of the wheel as a tool, and how to creatively integrate multiple processes in the studio to form unique and unified pots. We will take the fear out of throwing and put the fun into forming! |
