Special thanks to Executive Director Deborah and her assiatant Liz for arranging this awesome publicity! Next, Liz and I zipped over to 95 KQDS for 2 more quick blurbs on the radio.

“A Career in Clay” by Tiffany Clements, Feature Story for the College of St. Benedict/St. John’s University

I met Tiffany many months ago at the Local Blend coffee shop. As a barista, she has first hand experience using my pottery everyday. She approached me to do a feature story for the College of St. Benedict/St. John’s University website and I am proud to share her great skills as an author and film maker. Please follow the link below and be sure to watch the quick video. Great job Tiffany!

The Potters Cast, Podcast Interview with Paul Blais, and Summer Pottery Shows in Minnesota

Paul Blais is new to the clay world, but he’s been a successful entrepreneur throughout his life. He was kind enough to invite me for an interview on his new itunes podcast, The Potters Cast. Follow the link below for the show notes and to hear the interview!

I like to download the episodes on my iphone podcast app and stream them while making or glazing pots, or on road trips. Paul has a second podcast, called Doubt the Doubts, with almost 200 interviews. I think potters can learn a lot from his background as an successful businessperson and from the information he’s collected from hundreds of successful people.

Additionally, here are a few shows that I’ll be attending and putting on this summer:

– Celebration of the Arts in Avon, MN: June 14th, 9am – 6pm. Check their facebook page here for more info.

Last year, singer/songwriter Gabriel Noska hopped on stage and I accompanied him with some gnarly solos.

Pottery on the Deck, downtown St. Joseph, MN: July 3rd, 5-9pm, solo show and sale on the same night as Joetown Rocks!

Duluth Art in Bayfront Park, Duluth, MN: August 16-17th. Check their website here for more info, and to watch a throwing demo video from 2012!

Farmers Markets every Monday, Friday and Saturday in the St. Joseph, MN area:

– Market Monday in Sartell, MN

– St. Joseph Frarmers’ Market

– St. Cloud Area Farmers’ Market

Generous Community Building: An Emerging Artist’s Experience at NCECA 2014

About three weeks ago, Joel traveled to Milwaukee, Wisconsin to attend NCECA 2014. The national ceramics conference brought together potters and pottery enthusiasts from across the country to celebrate all things clay. One of the greatest takeaways from the conference for Joel was when he met Carole Epp, writer of the popular ceramics blog Musing About Mud. The two hit it off immediately, and Carol invited him to write an emerging artist’s post for her blog.

Here’s a link the article Joel wrote. The post describes what NCECA was like for Joel as an emerging potter and what he learned from the contemporary ceramics community.
