The Cousins Are Coming

founding cousins (l-r) Gholson, Henneke, Kline

It's hard to believe that in just two weeks my Cousins in Clay will be here unwrapping their pots for our Labor Day weekend pottery show. Bruce Gholson and Samantha Henneke will be arriving from their Seagrove, North Carolina home and pottery. Kyle Carpenter will be pulling into the drive with his converted trailer/camper from Asheville, NC, and Troy Bungart, all the way from Three Rivers, Michigan will have just wrapped up his workshop at the nearby Penland School of Crafts.


Together there will be hundreds of cups, bowls, pitchers, plates and platters of a seemingly infinite palette of glaze colors and pottery shapes.
