At this year’s NCECA Pittsburgh I sat down with a group of potters that had put on a room show to talk about what it was like to put on a room show. Now a room show is not part of NCECA, but it is a side thing that happens during NCECA in a hotel room. So that was going to be the point of the conversation.

The participants were Denise Joyal, Chris Landers, Lisa York, and Tim Sherman.
