This past weekend I visited The Clay Studio to see the Small Favors Inside the Box exhibition and went on the Urban Pottery Tour with my friend and fellow artist Joanne Cassaro. It was a wonderful experience to meet the artists who work in Philadelphia and their invited guests, some of whom I had met at workshops or shows and some of whom I felt like I knew because I had learned so much from them through ceramics publications or the internet. Equally wonderful was to see all the work in clay and the studios where it is made. Here is just a glimpse of what we saw:
