Results of the great throw!

 

Our annual tradition of supporting the Food Bank of Northeast Georgia, we geared up to produce a record number of soup bowls for the Empty Bowls luncheon to be held on March 17.  Here are a few photos from the event.  Come to the studio and see the results.

 

 

 

Glass Fusing Workshops with Kim Sutherland

 

In her winter glass fusing workshops, Kim Sutherland will introduce the techniques and concepts necessary to complete the designated project and to gain an understanding of how the glass will behave when heated in the kiln.  Although the projects are somewhat progressive in degree of difficulty, students should feel free to take any of the workshops without having started the series at the beginning.

@ Good Dirt

 

Dear Friends of Good Dirt,

 

I hope you’re all staying warm.  I just wanted to give you a quick update on winter happenings at the studio and gallery.  Our winter 2010 classes begin this week.  We still do have some availability in all of our classes.  Check out the winter schedule.  Give us a call at 706-355-3161 if you want to get in on the fun.  Don’t forget about our weekend glass workshops if you don’t have time for an 8-week pottery course.

 

In keeping with our annual tradition of supporting the Food Bank of Northeast Georgia, we will be gearing up to produce a record 500 soup bowls for the big Empty Bowls luncheon to be held on March 17.  Come join us to make bowls, wedge clay, or just cheer on the stalwart potters on Sunday, January 17, from 1-5PM.  On Martin Luther King Day the following Monday, we will be hosting a kids’ out of school workshop from 9AM – 3PM.  In addition to making a portrait bust to take home, the kids will be making bowls to be used as centerpieces at the Empty Bowls Luncheon.  Good Dirt potters will be working throughout the day on January 18 to trim feet on the bowls made the previous day and to continue toward our goal of 500 bowls.  On February 12 from 5-7PM, we will host an opening reception in the Gallery @ Good Dirt to unveil the dozen or so high-end pots to be auctioned at the Food Bank’s silent auction on the day of the Empty Bowls event.  

 

 

 

If you haven’t been by the Gallery lately, now would be a great time to stop in.  We have lots of new work that came in during the holidays from David Morgan, Kelly King, Nancy Green, Crisha Yantis, Jeff Bishoff, Ron Meyers, Ted Saupe and many others.  We also have some new potters represented, including Isabel Daniel and Phil Woodhall

We’re open 7 days a week and are always happy to show you around and explain the techniques used to create this wonderfully functional art. 

 

Whether through the Gallery or the Studio, I hope you can come be a part of the clay community here at Good Dirt this winter.  Please don’t hesitate to call or stop by if you have any questions. 

 

Sincerely Yours,

Rob Sutherland
