Hey so ... ok. I just wanted to remind you, that tomorrow night, Thursday, instead of our usual members class, you have a throw-a-thon....so you have this space, and this community, you have clay and you have me and I have you. And we'll just make pots, all night if we have to, until the grief and the stress, the rage and all the big feelings feel a little bit smaller. Community. Always.

MudFire's resident artists and members made some beautiful things this year. Give the gift of pottery to your friends and fam - if you missed the SNL skit a few weeks back you know that everyone wants the gift of pottery for the holidays :) - Click here (https://youtu.be/Kw5A2Es8SLw?feature=shared) to watch Emma Stone and a funny take on pottery studio happenings.

Gifting made easy! Gifts can be redeemed in person at the gallery or for date night events. Egift cards can't be redeemed online at this point.

It's the holiday sale - our annual sale!!!! It has been a MudFire tradition for over 20 years! Shop small, support local businesses and makers, and buy something handmade to love or give. Join us on Small Business Saturday, November 25th - and shop till you get hungry and go home for leftovers. First in the door get a special treat from The Salty (hmmmmm could it be donuts????) - I know you haven't heard from us a lot this year but the studio is doing great and we are full of Atlanta's most talented potters so please drop in and show them some love this year. We are so happy to be here this year - we are still in recovery mode from Daphne's illness and dual hospital stays last fall and winter, and we'd love to see you to say Happy Holidays! XO - Deanna and Daphne

Happy Pride and Coming Out week (lol like we don't spend our lives doing that) and Spooky Friday the 13th, an eclipse, and celebrating fall βœ¨πŸŽƒπŸ’•πŸ‘»πŸ™€πŸπŸŒˆ so many things......

Spooky kitty by .frog.studios standing in front of my love sign for PRIDE.

Remember PRIDE started as a protest, a riot, a reaction to the way our rights and our love is seen. We aren't done fighting until we are all safe and loved. Daphne and I strive to create a place for all makers but especially the LGBTQ and BIPOC communities and all intersections therein because access to a ceramic community is something we feel is vital and crucial to being a maker and earning your own πŸ’²and creating a body of work made for you and your community that you can then use your q***r earned πŸ’² to support others in your community πŸ’•πŸŒˆβœ¨πŸŒ±

Happy PRIDE, Happy Friday the 13th πŸ³οΈβ€πŸŒˆπŸŒˆ

Daphne made me plant these roses outside when we moved into our new house that we are so grateful to be in. If you know me you know I am an indoor plant lover and struggle with outside plantings. It's been a year since we were living at the Shepherd Center and now Daphne is walking with just a cane and is driving again. The passage of time is surreal not unlike this beautiful temporary flower.

It's getting easier to talk about what happened and a little easier to sleep through the night without being hyper vigilant.

Thank you to our studio staff, friends, and members for celebrating Daphne's progress in all the small ways we can. Looking forward to a beautiful fall πŸ‚πŸπŸŒˆβ€οΈβœ¨
