Pottery for Land Conservation!

July 23, 2022

Date/Time
Date(s) - Jul 23rd, 2022 - Jul 24th, 2022
10:00 am - 5:00 pm

Location
Stonepool Pottery


Centered in the image is a vibrant blue ceramic bowl made by Emmett Leader. The edges of other similar bowls can be seen in the image as well. Join Hilltown Land Trust and local potter Emmett Leader at the Hilltown 6 Pottery Tour! Emmett donated his time making dozens of vibrant handmade bowls that will be available to purchase for a donation of $60. The full proceeds of these bowls will go to HLT’s land conservation and stewardship work in the Hilltowns. Emmett used locally-sourced clay to make this beautiful pottery.

You can find Emmett, his handcrafted bowls, and Hilltown Land Trust Board members and staff at Mark Shapiro‘s pottery studio Stonepool Pottery in Worthington from 10-5 on Saturday and Sunday. Emmett will also be making freshly boiled and baked bagels to go with the bowls, to provide sustenance for your pottery rambles!

Both Emmett and Mark have a personal connection with the Conwell property, which inspired them to hold this fundraiser! After you do your pottery shopping, you can head just around the corner to cool off on in the woods of the Conwell property. We will have maps and directions available at our table, or you can download a copy to bring with you.
