The pottery studio and gallery opened on June 10, 2010 and offers classes for children and adults, clay workshops and has an art gallery. “When we hatched the idea of creating a space for a pottery community, we never imagined how much people would come to love it. The studio is a safe place for people to create and express themselves.  It has been one of the most rewarding endeavors of my life,” says Kay Bolin, co-founder.

O’Grady has created over one hundred ceramic man hole covers and each one takes between 35 and 50 hours of work.  “I’ve always been inspired by the beauty, art and symmetry in these every day objects, that many people simply overlook.  I’m very pleased to be offering this special cover to one lucky winner,” states O’Grady.
