The Julia Terr Fund for Ceramics raised money thanks to the many generous friends and family who contributed over the past nine months. The first project was the building of a soda-salt kiln at Penland School of Crafts in Penland, North Carolina — a place that nourished and inspired Julia in her own ceramic journey. In April, I traveled to North Carolina where I was   privileged to work with some great friends - Katie Wilson, Paul Wisotzky, Denise Shoukas, Nora Thomas, Anna Ronis, and Cynthia Bringle.  The kiln was designed by Mark Peters who guided us in the building.

Here is a link to a video summary of the four days we spent building the kiln:

Thanks to Paul for the great video.

Many thanks to all our friends who helped build the kiln and to all those who contributed to the fund.

Love,
