Adam Field Workshop & Opening Reception Saturday Sept. 12th 

Happy Fall Days, TRAX friends and fans!


This is Adam Field during his Korean internship in 2008. He studied with a great master, Kim ILL-Maan, and now makes

his studio pots in an entirely different style but pertinent to his experiences in Korea. Below are some of the jars produced for

miso, soy, and kimchi, the fermented cabbage so beneficial for health. We eat it to improve our digestion and energy!

Please come see Adam, Robert Brady, and myself, Sandy Simon, next Saturday (9/12/09) for Adam's workshop at noon - 4:00pm ($40.00) and the opening of our pots in the gallery from 5 - 7. New Pots by all of us.


I hope to see you!!

Sandy
