One of the highlights of the year for many ceramics and pottery peeps is the opportunity to be immersed for 4 days in everything clay at the National Council on Education for the Ceramic Arts annual conference. This past conference was in Richmond Virginia- and was a fabulous time with exhibits galore, artists, vendors of equipment and tools, and just generally filled with ceramic art and information about ceramic art!

(Mason is currently the largest high school in Ohio!) As a potter, I have been working in clay for over 30 years, and I have been teaching for over 30 years, the past 2 have been specifically teaching high school ceramics. I love what I do! I have my own studio in my home basement, where I work on my personal pottery for my Etsy site; https://www.etsy.com/shop/KaransPotsAndGlass I started my Youtube channel to make videos to help my students if they are absent and miss a demo, or if they would like to explore more advanced techniques independently. I have been amazed to reach such a wider audience than my own students! Please subscribe to my channel if you would like to receive channel updates, or would like to learn more about clay and studio processes!
