Recharge your batteries at the 2nd biennial Iowa Clay Conference, which kicks off Friday September 20 with akeynote talk by Peter Pinnell. “Peter is a very entertaining speaker,” says Clary Illian, the keynote speaker at the 2011 conference, “so it’ll be fabulous.”
Enjoy break-out sessions with Pinnell, Don Pilcher, Bede Clarke, Margaret Bohls, JoAnn Schnabel, TJ Erdahl, Israel Davis, Mat Rude and Mike Gesiakowski. Clarke, Davis, Bohls and Erdahl will also offer demonstrations.
There’ll be plenty of time to talk with presenters informally – plus a mug/cup exchange, a vendor fair and a bus tour of seven ceramics exhibition sites, including the River 2 River juried Exhibition.

Want to be featured as an emerging artist on musing? All you have to do is send me some images, a brief write up if you’d like, and a website if you have it to [email protected] If you could put emerging artist in the subject header of the email so it doesn’t get lost in my spam folder that would be great. Thanks!
