HOLY INNOCENTS' EPISCOPAL SCHOOL CELEBRATES THE LIFE AND ART OF
PAUL SOLDNER

"Finding Your Own Way"

Holy Innocents' Episcopal School and the Fine Arts Alliance are proud to
host an art seminar celebrating the life and accomplishments of ceramic
artist, Paul Soldner. Please help us spread the word and invite your
friends who are interested in learning about the life and contributions of
one of the most important artists of our time. We invite you to join us in
celebrating and honoring the life and accomplishments of this extraordinary
artist and to hear his wonderful life stories and experiences through his
journeys in reaching the level of a master artist and one of the moving
forces of the ceramic arts of the 20th and 21st centuries.

"Finding Your Own Way"--Soldner conducts his workshops by osmosis
instruction. That is, he demonstrates and produces a body of work in the
studio. Participants are encouraged to watch, ask questions, document and
photograph the creative process as practiced by a mature artist. He will
talk about his life and personal philosophy. In addition, Soldner will
teach his low tech solutions for mixing glazes, making terra sigillata,
kiln building, firing theory and explain his clay asethetics. As part of
the process, Paul will be screening his designs on T-shirts. Please bring
a T-shirt, if you would like a Soldner screened design.
