Carolyn Curran writes: “If health holds out, I’m getting back in the world of miniature pottery this year. I am participating in a local pottery show and the BadAss Miniatures exhibit at YoHo Artists Open Studio Event in Yonkers, N.Y., through July 22. After an absence of 15 years I’ll also be participating once again in the International Guild of Miniature Artisans (IGMA) show at Hartford-Windsor Marriott in Connecticut (Sept. 18-23). I am having great fun doing research on ancient pottery and have built miniature kilns for firing Greek and Roman pottery. I am amazed at the research material and images available on the Internet now; it is much easier to find info than in the olden days, although books are still my passion. This summer I get my wish of a week’s family gathering for my 80th birthday: three sons and their wives and kids. Life is good despite creaks and groans and the passing of my best pal and spouse, Tom, eight years ago. Last year freshman roommate Ann Erpenback Bottelli and her husband came to visit here in New Bern, and I wish others would find their way here as well.”
