oktoberfest_2008_thumbReception: Friday, October 17th from 6-9.

Many thanks to all who made our recent Oktoberfest a smashing success!  The studio was visited by over 200 people on Friday, October 17th.  Everyone who purchased a mug was invited to join us in the garden for beer and soft drinks.  Many La Mano artists - including students, teachers, studio potters - prepared unique drinking vessels for the evening's events.

80x80_2008_aug_storeRaku and gas kiln fired pieces are on display this month. Every summer, the staff retreat is hosted by Peggy and Howie Clarke up at their house in the Catskills. Staff members camp out on the property and do dozens of raku firings throughout the weekend.

This is but one of the ways that La Mano shows its appreciation for its staff who barter for class fees and shelf space by wedging clay and monitoring the studio during business hours.
