Join Appalachian Arts on September 15th for a special Meet the Artist reception featuring ceramic artist Pat Clapsaddle. Visitors are invited to explore her vibrant pottery collection, ask questions about her techniques, and watch live demonstrations of her hand-painted surface design throughout the day.
Pat Clapsaddle creates distinctive ceramic works using terra cotta clay, which she throws and assembles by hand. Her surfaces feature colorful majolica glazes on black and red grounds, enhanced by expressive sgraffito contour lines. Many of her pieces are also textured through clay imprinting techniques. All works are low-fired, food safe, and fully functional—designed to be both beautiful and useful.
With over 32 years of experience teaching art in Massachusetts and Ohio, Pat Clapsaddle was honored as the Outstanding Art Teacher for the Northeast Region by the Ohio Art Education Association. Her ceramics have been showcased in numerous local galleries, exhibitions, and craft shows. Learn more about Pat Clapsaddle.
The exhibit will remain on display in our gallery through September 24.
This event is free and open to the public. Stop by to connect with the artist, see her creative process in action, and experience the richness of contemporary pottery. Light Refreshments will be provided.
