R.D. Mahan Kiln Opening & Turkey Roast


  • From The Ground Up Pottery 172 Crestwood Road Robbins, NC, 27325 United States (map)

This year's turkey will be a "Turkey Jerky" that can be eaten off premises after browing a selection of our latest pots. R.D. was my father, the late Ronald Dewitt Mahan. This is our kiln opening in honor of the man whose courage, determination and energy inspired me to create whatever I desire. It's a yearly event at the studio to celebrate pottery and family, together with friends from more than thirty years of making pottery in Seagrove. I will have new work available fresh from the kilns. There will be wood-fired pots and electric-fired pots: tree pots, platters, soul pots, bells, and more, some made from local clay. Shop in person and online. Refreshments to go. Masks required.
