Cynthia Curtis Pottery invites you to the 6th Holiday Student and Studio Potter Show and Sale as part of the Christmas in Rockport Gallery Stroll Weekend.

The peaceful pottery nestled in the woods near magnificent quarries and colorful Atlantic coastline is home to Cynthia’s work and has been shared with nearly 1000 students over the past 13 years.  Many of the emerging artists from her studio, as well as their talented, experienced teachers, will display original ceramics with fresh approaches to functional pottery, at prices you will appreciate!
 
Student and faculty pieces are displayed for the weekend in the beautifully transformed pottery studio while Cynthia’s work is on exhibit in her cozy, wood stove- warmed gallery – an inviting place to shop for the holidays and connect with new and familiar friends over a cup of hot cider and Ali’s delicious chocolate chip cookies.
 
Stop by the weekend of the Christmas in Rockport Gallery Stroll, Saturday and Sunday, December 10 and 11 from 10 a.m. – 4 p.m.   Artists’ Reception Saturday, from 4 p.m. –7 p.m.  Free admission, refreshments and plenty of parking.  All are welcome! 
 
Profits go to the Cynthia Curtis Pottery Scholarship Fund.  Cynthia’s gallery will also be open throughout the holidays.  Private lessons and weekly classes offered year round.
