Wow- I could not believe how many people were at Truckee Thursdays last week! It is definitely the happening event in town. About a dozen people painted pottery during the evening, most came over the weekend to pick up their masterpieces.
Being that I have Drop-in (open studio time) Thursdays 5:30 - 8 pm at the studio, Gerri will be there tonight for T Pots Pottery. Stop at our booth by the Kid Zone to say Hello and paint a piece yourself or come over to the studio and check out the happenings there!
Enjoy your Thursday in Truckee,
Teresa

Summer
Summer arrived yesterday... and is leaving again tomorrow. So sad. It has been wonderful having the big roll up door open, it is South facing, so the sunshine beams in all day long. The studio feels so much larger.
With summer comes all sorts of activities, "Truckee Thursday" begins this week. New this year, Donner Pass Road will be closed off to cars. Stop at our booth to say "hi".
The first Raku firing will be this Saturday from 2 - 7 pm at the studio. It is so exciting! Probably not an issue this year.... if you are going to Raku fire your own piece of pottery be sure to wear long pants, long sleeve shirt and closed toe shoes. Using tongs, we take the pottery out of the special Raku kiln when the pieces are around 1500 degrees! That is hot!
Kids Camp starts next week with a 60's theme- "Peace, Love & Pottery". I'm so excited, have some really fun projects planned. This first week, we will be playing in clay, both handbuilding and on the wheel, doing some fused glass and so much more.
And, of course, ARTour, North Lake Tahoe's Open Studio event. Two weeks of fun are planned July 9-11 & July 16-18. I'm really looking forward to ARTour this year, with the new studio, I can leave the "working" area as is without to much interruption to production and class schedules.
Lets hope summer comes and stays for a while!
