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.
