Moring Arts Center in Asheboro, NC, Features Exhibit of Seagrove, NC, Area Artists
A show entitled, Cooking With Gas, featuring works by the proprietors of four Seagrove area potteries that fire their work using natural gas will occupy the Main Gallery of the Moring Arts Center in Asheboro, NC, from July 7 - 30, 2003. The four potteries are Dean Martin Pottery (Jeffrey and Stefanie Dean), the White Oak Gallery (Benjamin Burns), Bulldog Pottery (Bruce Gholson and Samantha Henneke), and Chris Luther Pottery. Meredith Heywood of Whynot Pottery is the curator for the exhibit. Works shown will be for sale.
Gas firing produces a cleaner burn than wood firing. It brings out the colors and the depth in glazes, particularly through reduction firing, that is, cutting off the oxygen in the kiln at a certain point during the process to create a high carbon atmosphere.
The Rotary Club of Asheboro is the sponsor of this show. In 2005 Rotary International will celebrate its centennial year.
