Description

Join us for the 2nd Annual Fire and Earth: 2010 Coastal Pottery Expo on Saturday, April 24th, from 10:00 a.m. to 4:30 p.m. Fire and Earth will celebrate the ancient art form of ceramics and pottery by featuring all forms, genres, mediums, and styles created by potters and ceramic artistans throughout the Gulf Coast region. Award winning potters and ceramic artists will display, sell, and share their work with the public on the museum grounds throughout the day.

The exposition will also include reduced admission in the Indian Temple Mound Museum gallery to explore the unique ceramic objects the prehistoric people of Fort Walton left behind and their meaning. Admission for the day will be $1.00. The museum gallery features one of the finest collections of Fort Walton Culture ceramics in the Southeastern United States. Additionally, several demonstrations, from a ground firing to a wheel-throwing demo and kiln firing by professional potters, will occur for the public to enjoy. The rain date will be April 25, 2010.

Ceramic artists interested in obtaining a booth space can fill out an artist application and submit it to Heritage Park. Application must be postmarked by April 10th.
