It has become an annual tradition to visit Dawn Soltysiak's farm in Michigan every fall, and it's the highlight of our year. Dawn hosts our pit and smoke firings, bringing us back in time when ceramic work was fired in the ground with combustible materials, the way it's been done for tens of thousands of years before gas & electricity. Dawn's life is inspiring. She chose to leave her traditional job behind to pursue her passion for ceramics and farming. She now runs classes and a gallery in a converted barn, while working to create a healthy and sustainable local farm along the Michigan coast.
