Friday, March 8 ~ 10am-6pm: JaMpdx Pop Up Shop
Local artists Jenn and Meghan from JaMpdx will join us to show off their gorgeous, handmade, one-of-a-kind ceramics. Their ceramics will bring extra enjoyment to your crafty life, including yarn bowls, mugs, pints, stitch dishes, and a variety of pretty pottery to decorate your home. New this year: enamel pins!
JaMpdx is the collaboration of Jenn Gauer and Meghan Radick, two friends who have been making functional and decorated ceramics together since 2004. Jenn uses a fine porcelain and throws the pieces on a potter’s wheel, and Meghan decorates them using cake decorating techniques (imagine an actual pastry bag and all the different metal tips, but instead of buttery frosting we use clay). Each bowl, cup or vase feels great and looks elegant—this is art that you are meant to use and enjoy! image © jampdx
