In collaboration with Home of Artisans and British artist Carol Newmarch, there was a demonstration of pottery making in Ponte Serraglio as part of the Art Festival. The street was closed and the crowds gathered for a fun and informative display.
The Art Festival is going from strength to strength and it is great to see lots of interest from locals and visitors alike.
Thank you Belinda from Home of Artisans for sharing the photos with us.
I hope you will all drop into Belinda’s gallery to see all of the lovely things created by artists from all over the world.
Bella Bagni di Lucca 
Wonderful! These are the type of events which were needed. Well done!
I agree, this is great for Ponte a Serraglio.
Good work! Feeling really sorry for myself for missing the event….
You will be there for it next year.
How fun! I love watching a potter and her wheel turning a lump of clay into something beautiful!
What fun to see something created in front of you.
I’m so sorry to have missed it by just days
…maybe next year.
Thank you for this article – it was a good evening! As well as my work being in Home of Artisans, I am continuing to show ceramics in the festival alongside Wren Miller until 9th August, and there are ceramics workshops in Ponte a Serraglio on 5/6/7 August from 10 till 12 (see festival website for details)
I hope to see some of your work when I return in September.
Well done Carol – good to see you are involved in the festival again this year. I think you will have to stay in Ponte a Serraglio for this event one year Debra.
