Original description:Join Doug Peltzman in this three hour virtual workshop and demo. He’ll walk us through his techniques and insights on maintaining his home studio and share what goes into being a full time potter. We’ll talk clay, kilns, glazes, and all things revolving around a life of making utilitarian pottery. You will have the opportunity to ask Doug questions in real time as he throws and constructs some of his beautiful teapots among other forms.
