Reignited: New Work by Two Cincinnati-area Culinary Ceramicists
Bethany Kramer and Christie Goodfellow have each spent the better part of the past decade creating small-batch production pottery for restaurants and individuals. Covid and its aftermath have nudged shifts into their studio practices and encouraged them to experiment with new forms, textures, and the scale of their work. These new pieces will be on view at MiCA through March 31, 2023.
Monday–Saturday, 11am–7pm
Sunday, 11am–5pm
Recpetion: Friday, March 17 5–8pm
16 Peat Pieces will be on display at the Manifest Gallery show Table, part of their Five Themes Project. In this exhibit the themes of Bed, Table, Window, Stairs, and Mirror are highlighted by the many stories that surround and puzzle them together.

Wine aged in clay has become popular in recent years with the rise of natural wine, but this technique is far from new. Born during the time of Ancient Rome, clay has played an integral part in the history of wine and the development of how we drink wine today. You will taste through 4 amphora-aged wines during this class and additional glasses will be available for purchase from the bar. Bar opens at 5:30pm and remains open after class for more sips and swirls. Lite bites provided by the Rhined.

Join us for our fall Pots & Plants sale!
Plants will be available oniine Wednesday, October 6 and continue through the weekend. Pottery will only be available during our in-person sale hours.
This sale is free to attend, but will require a shopping time reservation so that customers can safely distance in the small space. Please note that wearing a face mask is mandatory. You can sign up for a staggered-start shopping time, here.
• UPDATE • we added walk-in times! Saturday, October 9, 12–3
What pottery and plants will be available? One of a kind planters and vases, select dinnerware, and seconds. Trees and shrubs including thornless blackberries, chestnut, dawn redwood, gooseberry, jostaberry, paw paw, peach, elderberry and walnut.
Why plant in the fall? Moderate temperatures and increased rainfall make fall in the best time to plant trees and shrubs. Planting in the fall allows woody plants to establish a root system before the ground freezes so that they will be ready to bloom in the spring.
Pottery and plants that are part of this sale will only be available for local pickup.
Follow along with us @cgceramics for a virtual seconds sale! Pieces will begin to be listed in our Instagram stories at noon and will stay posted to 2pm, or until sold. Detailed information will be sent out in our newsletter the day prior and on Instagram the day of the sale.
What are seconds?!?
Seconds are imperfect wares priced to sell! Imperfections include: out-of-round rims, clay or glaze mishaps, samples or order overflows. Seconds are generally less than first quality, but still functional.
