March 3, 2020 – The unveiling of a big new idea called POT(tery) of the Week.
Enjoying a state of euphoria, ready for the challenge of a huge shift in the way we make pottery (in “normal” times), we were blissfully unaware of the turmoil about to take hold of the world. We intended this project to be a dynamic way to share ideas with our audience and gain feedback on product development in real time, however, the timing–at the cusp of the pandemic–made it far more important.
Fifty-something limited designs later POTW now represents a lifeline in more ways than one. In its infancy it connected us to you via weekly check-ins. Your response inspired us to keep creating amongst uncertainty. Persistent obstacles strengthened us as we leaned on each other, trusting the strengths of our teammates and friends, working together to persevere. And POTW kept the lights on as we adapted to the realities of closed galleries and working from in-home studios. |
