This year's turkey will be a "Turkey Jerky" that can be eaten after browsing a selection of our latest pots. R.D. was my father, the late Ronald Dewitt Mahan. This is our kiln opening in honor of the man whose courage, determination and energy inspired me to create whatever I desire. It's a yearly event at the studio to celebrate, with family and friends, making pottery in Seagrove for almost 40 years. I will have new work available fresh from the kilns. There will be wood-fired pots and electric-fired pots: tree pots, platters, soul pots, bells, and more. Refreshments to go.
