The Beauty of Pueblo Pottery

Volunteers enjoyed a wonderful talk and pottery making demonstration by Laguna Pueblo potter Michael Kanteena.  He’s shown here with his deer vase, a style for which he’s best known.  Michael incorporates animal images into his pottery.  His unique contemporary style reflects motifs from the Chacoan and Mimbres cultures.   After his talk, art educator Bethe Sailer taught volunteers how to instruct children to make a pinch pot and coil pot.  And a good time was had by all!
