Tennessee Potter’s Society provides meetings to gather potters of all experience and skill levels for celebration, preservation, and education to ensure a strong community and sustainable industry for clay artists.
The focus of our meetings center on how we as potters, which are usually solitary workers, are stronger together than apart. Community is important to sustain our industry.
We will have speakers, Q&A, table talk with specific topics and of course, networking and conversation!
Due to the large attendance, we request you RSVP your intention to attend by emailing danielle@theclaylady.com
Members will not be asked to pay monetary dues. However, there will be an ask at each meeting for a piece of your work to benefit our creative, non-profit, communities of Tennessee.
Spring meeting Dues: a bowl
to benefit Habitat for Humanity
Come early to the meeting and participate in our Spring Bowl-A-Thon in our pottery studio from 9:00-3:00! Clay is provided! Bowls will be given to the Cooking on The Square event to benefit Habitat for Humanity.
Each meeting will have different potters with various experience and backgrounds sharing their experience as Tennessee Potters followed by conversation and collaboration!
Spring meeting will be a Panel discussion:
On-Line Revenue Model for Artists.
Our past speakers are also listed at the bottom.
Hear from 4 artists that have navigated and succeeded at using Social Media, Website, and other on-line platforms to sell their work. What are the downfalls? The questions you forgot to find the answer to? How to satisfy a customer that doesn’t see your work IRL? What platforms are more successful than others? Which on-line revenue stream can work best for you and your art? There will be a Q & A – so bring your curiosity and questions!
As pottery becomes more accessible and not just a unique skill to be learned from a master or university, Community Art Centers must evolve to offer the depth of knowledge to understand ceramics history, tradition, and craftsmanship. How can this bridge be built to balance both traditional and current trends?
What is the role of Community Art Centers as access to ceramics education has become more widespread than traditional master/apprentice or University education? How can self-taught or “social media taught” potters still gain the depth of knowledge to understand ceramics history, tradition, and craftmanship?
