Starting TOMORROW!!! I’m packing up now, loading car with tons of pots & headed to Sandwich soon to start setting up! Looking forward to a great weekend as part of the NORTHERN ILLINOIS POTTERY TOUR again this year. Hoping to see a lot of pottery-loving folks this weekend… come on by the Sandwich location first… and then head to the rest!!!

Just days away!!! The NORTHERN ILLINOIS POTTERY TOUR is this weekend. I’ll be at the Sandwich location out in the far west suburbs. I would start there & work your way back towards the Chicago to get the full “tour” experience. There are seven ceramic artists at our location… functional, whimsical, decorative, sculptural, traditional, textural & so much more. A little of everything!!! Mark your calendar, set the GPS, pack some snacks… and have fun roadtrippin’ around The Tour this weekend!

So I’ll be at the Sandwich location of the NORTHERN ILLINOIS POTTERY TOUR this weekend… assuming I ever get out of this airport?!!! Just a reminder… with fingers crossed!!!

Just a quick reminder that this weekend is the NORTHERN ILLINOIS POTTERY TOUR. I am returning this year as a Guest Artist at my friend Cory McCrory’s home-studio in Sandwich, Illinois. We’ve got a great group of artists in Sandwich… so I think it makes sense to start the day with us, and then work your way back at the other studio stops along The Tour. Hit all of the locations to see a LOT of pottery next weekend. Hope to see you there!

Huge THANKS to everyone who came out this weekend for the Hinsdale Fine Arts Fair. We really appreciate your support… whether it was in the rain all day Saturday, or the swarming cicadas & shouting Palestinian protests on Sunday. Either day, it was not an ideal art fair weekend for us in Hinsdale.

Luckily, I’ll be out again this weekend for the NORTHERN ILLINOIS POTTERY TOUR. I will be one of the guest artists at my friend Cory McCrory’s home-studio in Sandwich, Illinois. Kinda out in the boonies… but definitely worth the scenic drive!!!

It’s Day Two of the HINSDALE FINE ARTS FAIR and it’s already better than yesterday!!! It looks like a beautiful day today, so come on out to Burlington Park… I’m in booth #69 until 4:00pm!

So while it rained most of the day today, we didn’t have a lot of customers out shopping… but we did have a LOT of cicadas to keep us entertained at the Hinsdale Fine Arts Fair. Even Rhonda & Maria were getting into the buggy fun!!!

After I parked my car & was walking back to my art fair tent this morning…
maybe I should have taken this as a “sign” for what the day would bring?!

Really it wasn’t all that bad… not really a “storm” per se…
but we did have a pretty steady rain or drizzle all day long!

One last reminder! Hope to see some of you this weekend in Hinsdale!!! Even if it rains… as pottery looks even better when it’s wet!!! HA!!!

So I decided to drive out to Hinsdale tonight to set-up my tent & shelves. Hoping to make tomorrow morning a bit less hectic when I bring all of the pottery!!! Beautiful sunset evening in Burlington Park… hoping for some good weather this weekend?! Fingers crossed…
