NDPCS ROAD SHOW
|
The North Dakota Pottery Collectors Society has developed a
program called the “NDPCS Pottery Road Show”. The program provides
historical and general information about the major producers of the types of
pottery made from North Dakota clay. The program includes a slide
presentation, a possible display of ND pottery types, and an identification
session. The one to three hour program format would be presented by volunteer
NDPCS members.
The NDPCS invites your organization to consider scheduling
and hosting the Pottery “Road Show” in your community. Details and
information about scheduling the event, location and facilitator will be worked
out on an individual basis. Further details may be obtained from Quent Christman,
941 Oxbow Court, Grand Forks, ND 58203, 701-775-3265.
