A special thanks goes out to Todd and Melissa Tabb for volunteering at the library last week! They are both extremely talented local potters that were willing to bring their potters wheel to the library to give a demonstration. We read a story called "The Pot that Juan Built" and then watched as Todd threw a pot on the wheel and Melissa described what techniques he was using. After they were done, they gave each child a piece of clay to make either a pinch pot (a small hand built cup) or a tile. After the kids were done, we collected their creations and Todd and Melissa took them home to fire in the kiln. What a great program!! I can't wait to see what they look like :) THANKS TODD AND MELISSA!!!
