Meet The Artist: David W. Nelson
Fri. Feb. 17, 6pm
David W. Nelson has been a studio potter for 27 years, exhibiting in Art Fairs throughout the country. From wood fired stoneware to traditional glazing, David’s art has a grand appeal. His studio is located here in Manchester, and he's graciously agreed to appear at the library to talk about pottery in general and his work as an artist more specifically. Questions are welcome! Pieces will also be available for purchase; David will donate 10% of his sales this night to the Library. For a quick glimpse of a few of David's pieces, visit his web site davidwnelson.wordpress.com.
This event is free and open to the public; light refreshments will be served.
