Philadelphia Western Cape: New artist exhibit

see Philadelphiapottery.blogspot.com

New artist exhibit

AJM is a photgraphic artist from Melkbosstrand and are now exhibiting some of his work in the gallery at the pottery studio. It is worth a visit!

The old and the new

This old metal workshop was transformed into the pottery studio with an intimate little showroom selling unique ceramic pieces.

The entrance is through the Pepper Tree art gallery and people are welcome to come and watch the artists at work.

Opening of Pottery studio

The evening was a tremendous success. Even the 2 outbursts of rain did not damper the festive mood. Outside the drums of fire were kept burning and inside was packed with people. The atmosphere was just so "vibey" with all the creative people around from mouldmakers, canvass makers, a few famous painters, musicians, other potters and interior decorators. Over 50 full meals were served by The Pepper Tree and the bar was kept open until the wee hours.
Thank you to all the Philadelphians and visitors for your great support.
Ferdinand.
