10th Anniversary celebration: the ceramic towers group project
Full-Circle Potters worked for almost a year to create pieces for ceramic towers to celebrate the studio’s 10th anniversary on 12/12/12. The love and passion potters brought to the group project was inspiring and resulted in a whole that was even greater than the sum of its parts. The finials for the towers were created by Peter Farqhuar of Authentic Forgeries. Genaro Molina made a video of the event.
