Hello all,

Ilene Mahler posted a note a few days back with an offer of a place to stay
for anyone that was coming to Middletown, CT for the Steven Hill workshop. It
seems that her Eudora Light is inoperable at present and therefore is unable
to receive email. Anyone interested in taking her up on this offer can either
call her at (860) 232-9051, email her husband: FMahler@snet.net, or call me
at (860) 228-8682.
Sorry for any inconvenience this may have caused.

Happy potting,
Heather Massey

Hi clayarters,

Here is the latest update on the Steven Hil workshop coming up in July:

evening is a two hour slide show/ discussion with Steven, 7 to 9pm. Sat
and Sun are both 8 hour demonstration days, 9am-to 5pm,(no hands -on for
participants). Steven gives a very good workshop which involves both
throwing demos and his grennware spray glazing techniques which he is known
for. The slide show and workshop will take place at my studio in the
beautiful countryside of Chicago Park, Ca. This is between Grass Valley and
Colfax on Hwy 174 , and about 10 miles from historic Nevada City. Slide
show will be in the barn or out doors if weather is good. We have great
summer skys here. The cost is =2480 per person. Lunch will be pot luck, or
=245 . If you are interested let me know so I can put your name on the
list. If you would like to ensure a spot you may send a =2440 deposit to
Mostly Caly (and put Steven Hill workshp in the memo line), along with your
name and address so we can send a map and any additional information as
time goes on. Overnight accomadations fill up early in this area so it is
advisable to get early reservations. There is a campground at Rollins Lake
about 10 minutes from my studio which is around =2415 per night. =
Reservations
are recommended. There are also a few cabins for rent on Rollins Lake.
Not sure of their cost or rating of the facillities but can find this out
if you are interested. There are also B=26B's and a couple of motels in
Grass Valley and Nevada City. This workshop is being brought to you by
Mostly Clay and Fine Crafts of Nevada City. If you have any questions you

The Steven Hill workshop, at McHenry County College this past weekend
(Friday and Saturday), was beautiful. I want to thank Great Lakes
Clay, the Clayworkers Guild of Illinois and McHenry County College for
sponsoring this workshop and Steven for an absolutely wonderful
presentation, a great learning experience.

Workshops are supposed to be inspiring, informative and provide tools
that the workshop attendees can take away with them to use in their
own work. This workshop was all of that and more (Lord, is Steven
funny!). If you can make it to one of Steven's workshop, it is well
worth the time and money.

A week ago I attended Steven Hill's workshop on electric vs gas firing, and
I just wanted to tell everyone what a stimulating experience it was-whether
you fire in oxidation or reduction (as I do). Steven is at once a gifted
potter, a great teacher, and a decent fellow. I was particularly impressed
with his willingness to share his "secrets" about spraying glazes, firing
schedules, and recipes. Maybe most important for me was his reflection on
how to pull all those elements together to make a pot into a unified whole.



I'm sure there are other great workshops out there, too-and I'd love to hea=
r
which ones people have found helpful-but I'd recommend Steven's to anyone. =
I
don't think he has his schedule set for next year yet, but you might want t=
