The Savory Spoon and Cooking School and Artisan Cheese
Ellison Bay Pottery Studios and Gallery

Cousin’s Walk

Clay Bay Pottery Gallery

Lindens Gallery

The Newport House

Gills Rock Stoneware Studio and Gallery

Turtle Ridge Studio and Gallery

Savory Spoon Cooking School will have a cheesemonger Saturday morning and lots of Wisconsin artisan cheeses.

Ellison Bay Pottery's exhibit this year for the Art Crawl is titled “To the Core".  John Dietrich’s newest body of work, rock or pebble shaped vases fired both in the pit and the high fire gas kiln, is an expression of the exploration of the irregular shapes and forms created by erosion, the Ice Age; evolution, in other words.

Turtle Ridge is hosting a hot glass bead making demonstration by Lesley Bruce Smith. Lesley makes beautiful glass beads and incorporates them with leather, fiber and metal into clustered "environment" jewelry pieces. Lesley and Mary Ellen collaborated on one of a kind pieces using glass "eyes" with carved and formed leather animal purses. This year the focus will be on masks and sculptural form
s incorporating both media. Lesley's demonstration will be from 12-4 on Saturday with her Trunk Show from 10-5. Sunday from 10-5 the public will enjoy the opportunity to make their own "Super 8" bracelets out of pre-cut multi-colored pieces of leather. Staff will be on hand to assist and give tours of the workshop. Don't miss this glass and leather event. Turtle Ridge is premiering 2 new vintage inspired bags, Simple and Simple Clutch in some exciting new color combinations.

Gills Rock Stoneware will be baking several breads in their wood fired oven next Saturday.

These are just a few of the delights in store for visitors to the Ellison Bay Fall Art Crawl.
