Okay so i really didn’t mean to drop off over the past few weeks, my apologies! But I promise I had a really good reason – I’ve been working behind the scenes on The Ceramics Congress which starts tomorrow! The event goes for 5 days, is jam-packed full of workshops from international artists, talks, fun challenges, artists markets, film fest and a HUGE online exhibition of 88 artists. I literally can’t name it all there is so much.
So I really hope you’ll join us this weekend. We already have over 5000 attendees signed up from around the world!
And it’s only $10 if you buy your ticket asap and seriously where else can you get this much ceramic fun for $10???
And if you can’t make it this weekend you can buy the replays for life for only $59 – still ridiculously cheap!!!
