Buy Wisconsin Pot This Weekend


Lola and I recommend buying POT this weekend and the best opportunity is the 14th Annual Cambridge Pottery Festival where forty nine Local Ceramic Artists will be displaying their wares. If you want plates, bowls, cups or vases you can purchase factory molded single glazed Martha Stewart Living Chinese imports or hand made Wisconsin pieces of superior quality and style. Madison residents in particular are reminded they are to think global, act local, eat local and eat off local dishes.

We highly recommend Susan & Eric Anderson of Markesan, WI who created the “Altered Pottery” shown in the photograph on the artist list page. Jerry Reinwand of Portage, WI for his continual development of crystalline glazed porcelain which no photograph does justice. Finally Ruth Hansen from Verona, WI because there is apparently no limit to her imagination about the shape and form clay can obtain.
