Kiln Works at Community Fine Arts Center

7:34 p.m.

This evening I attended a reception at The Community Fine Arts Center in Rock Springs, WY with my parents. We were there to support my nephew, Stephen Wardell.

As you may have noticed, I rarely write names and places on my posts, but this is a promotional post! Yeah, sometimes I do that!

This is my nephew, Stephen. He's a potter; the real deal. He recently had a booth at Riverfest in Green River, and this is some of the pottery he had on display there.

Tonight he and six other artists held a reception to open their month-long exhibition of kiln work. There was a really nice turnout of art-appreciators. This was my first visit to the location, and I have to say I was quite impressed with the venue and the artwork they have on display.

There were a total of seven atrists' work on display. Besides my nephew, these were Bart Fetz, Bruce Woodward, Drew Roska, Sarah Gillingham, Teryl Deans Hartman and Susie von Ahrens. Susie, pictured above with one of her lovely plates, was a classmate of mine--though you certainly can't tell! She looks so young!

I have to give a shout out about this exhibit, because all the work is impressive and beautiful. If you're in the area, these fine pieces will be on display until September 30th, and it is well worth your time to drop in and give them all a look.

Enjoy!

Have a good night!
