CERAMIC ARTS IN LOVELAND

Tim and Kay O'Grady, long time residents of Loveland, are in the midst of living a dream with the anticipated opening of Whistle Stop Clay Works, a ceramics studio and gallery. Tim, having retired in 2006, renewed his passion with clay at his home studio and things just fell into place with the purchase of a 1300 sq ft building in Historic Loveland. Tim and Kay are both members of the Loveland Arts Council and believe firmly that art has a serious impact on lives and the community. Partnering with Missy McCormick, a ceramics artist living in Loveland, Ohio, who received a BFA from Georgia Southern University before becoming a production potter in the Appalachian Mountains. After receiving her MFA at the University of Florida in 2001, Missy has worked as a professional artist and taught at universities in Georgia, Florida, Arkansas, Wisconsin and Alberta Canada. With the addition of Missy as Director of Instruction, we feel we have created an ideal setting for learning, relaxation and fun. All classes offered provide for individual attention to your creative exploration in clay. And they are filling up! The June 9th wheel throwing 101 is full. For class schedules, please contact Tim or Kay at 513-683-CLAY or visit our website www.whistlestopclayworks.com
