Bowl-a-thon! Friday and Saturday

Happy New Year Potters Guild Members!
I am looking forward to be getting my hands in clay for the first time this new year at this weekend’s BOWL-A-THON at the Southwest School of Art at 9 am on Friday, tomorrow. Plenty of clay to make bowls on Friday and trim bowls on Saturday. Plenty of good food as I will fire up the grill for some dogs and burgers. We might go a little later in the evening if we need to but we plan to be done by 6 pm both days.
Saturday afternoon kick off lunch, top off your burgers and dogs with some homemade chili provided by Janan Moses. If any of you would like to bring something delicious to add to the meals please do. Remember we will not have access to refrigeration in the studio. Ice chests with soft drinks and water will be available. Please bring your own coffee in the mornings.
*SATURDAY MORNING DISCOVERY FOR CHILDREN WILL BE HELD IN THE CERAMICS STUDIO* until around noon. We will need to make sure the studio is cleaned up Friday evening and all of our bowls and materials are put on carts and stored in the back while this class is in session. You may want to make plans to come a little later on Saturday because parking will be limited.

I want to ask for some volunteers to help keep the studio and bowls in order. Help load, fire and unload the bisque kilns.
 
If you haven’t replied to my earlier email let me know today if you will be there Friday or Saturday to make bowls. I need a head count to purchase our food stuff.  Also reply if you will help process the bowls through the kilns, packing later in the weeks ahead.

See you soon!
