Working with the Community

This year our Empty Bowls Project promises to be bigger and better than ever. The Palouse Studio Potters Guild has been holding workshops in the community to make bowls for sale this year.


The first workshop was painting underglazes on bisqued bowls. Jeanne led this workshop with the local S.C.A. branch. Notice the concentration and interest in the participants!


Just one more touch of blue.


This was a bowl painting workshop done at the Palouse Women Artists Retreat. Here Celia Boland carefully applies underglaze to a bisqued bowl. The Potter's Guild will cover the bowl with transparent glaze and fire it for the Empty Bowls Project. This composition looks like it will be a facinating bowl.

Linda paints Palouse Hills on Palouse Pottery athe the PWA Retreat.


The PWA weekend was a wonderful weekend of friends, beautiful scenery, surrounded by creativity and creative pursuits. These bowl painters are obviously enjoying the good times. Many of the Palouse Potters Guild members are also members of the PWA.
