This is the Potter's Cast.

A podcast home for potters everywhere.

It's a community of potters dedicated to grow their business.

We're picking up where the art degree ends.

I'm your host, Paul Blaze.

Hello and welcome to episode number 1,117 of The Potter's cast. So happy that we are hanging out together today.

Now, this is the week that Enceica is happening. And so a lot of potters are traveling from all over

the world, all over Canada, all over the United States to be able to go to

Salt Lake City this time around. Next year it's going to be somewhere else. But this year,

it's in Salt Lake City, Utah, and they're going to be doing there and Sika type stuff. So I'm

so sad I can't be there. But it's all good. It's all good.

We'll survive. We will survive. I do know that coming up in just a few more weeks, like I think

it's the end of April, and I'll give you more dates for that later on. But I do know we've got another thing coming

up, which is the ceramic showcase, which if you are anywhere in the Pacific Northwest, then this is

one of those events that's totally worth going to because there are going to be potters from

all over Oregon and Southwest Washington that are going to be going to the convention center in downtown Portland and being a part of the ceramic showcase, which happens to be one of the biggest ceramic shows west of the Mississippi.

It's pretty amazing.

A lot of incredible potters live out here in this neck of the woods, and they make awesome work,

and it's going to be on display there in Portland.

My wife's going to be there. She is in there. She's, she's part of

Amblewood Studios and, well, not part of, she is Amblewood Studios. Anyhow, she's going to be having

her work there and I'm going to be there. And so if you want to go and check out all of that,
