The Chelsea Ceramic Guild , on 19th Street between 7th and 8th Avenue, is a pottery studio and school for amateur ceramists and potters. Opened in 1989, the non-profit organization offers beginners, intermediate and advanced classes on pottery, glazing and firing, as well as a retail space for supplies and students' art work.In the photo, the girl in red pants just finished her pottery (a vase) and covered it with a plastic bag (at bottom left corner). She left to wash her hands and later moved the case onto one of the shelves on the right for air drying. I did not stay around long enough to see what happened after that.

yeeeah, I'm with Andreea too ^^
So you didn't try to make a little ceramic piece?
keropokman & dsole - I was the creepy old man staring at them through the window with a camera. :-)
alice - have thought of doing some pottery too but was told it will take months before you can make something that doesn't look like a 5-year old kid's toy.
andrea - opps! Didn't mean to forget you in the last post. Yes, when I saw the woman stradling the wheel, I immediately thought of "Ghost" too.
Great checking the NYCDP and I thank you for all your great comments on RDP.
I don't manage to get around all the great DP's blogs because we are still in the internet stoneage where we live - no broadband......
c'est sympathique comme endroit. n'etant pas adroit de mes deux mains, je suis en admiration devant les gens qui arrivent à creer des poteries and co

Let's hope it dried just right.
Ceramics can be great fun as well as great disappointment, precisely because so much of what one does looks a mess!
I know Blood and Chocolate it`s a good movie....and the virus it`s Viroza ( i don`t know how to say in english :D)
It's like playing in the mud for grown ups!
