We are close to making our year long dream of a new community pottery center for our region a reality. In the meantime, the Sharing Arts group has been busy. They now have a temporary kiln location set up in Dublin, ready for regular firings. They've had an intern help develop the studio procedures to pave the way to the studio opening, and they've developed some new classes to get your hands dirty while you wait.
How can makers manage all their ideas and projects? On Thursday September 29th, Arts Alive! hosted an Artist to Artist workshop in partnership with the Hannah Grimes Center and MAxT, Peterborough's Makerspace, by Project Management Expert Lisa Sieverts to teach the community about how to manage and prioritize projects to keep things moving.
