workshops

Getting it right and passing it on... is at the heart of why I make pots.

Teaching workshops allows me to contribute to the community that has given me so much.

As participants share hunches, challenges, techniques and questions... we define not only how to make, but why we make and why what we do matters.
Workshops are conversations.


I teach both demonstration and hands-on workshops that focus on the design, construction and firing of wood kilns, throwing large scale work, tea-ware and bottles.

Workshops have taken me north to Vermont, south to Florida, west to Utah and Colorado, and across the big pond to Wales and England.

I teach a limited number of workshops here at Tye River for four participants who usually work on one form (decided upon by the group) for the weekend. The fee ($300) includes bed and board with us and clay.
Contact me anytime for workshop information.
