Can I get a little IRL help?

Gosh, where in Asheville wouldn't carry them? This city is just about pottery central. If you'd like a list, I'll see what I can come up with.

At least a couple of the places around here have pretty tight relationships with the Southern Highlands Craft Guild, so if he's not a member it might prove difficult getting some places to take his work. The Folk Art Center in particular, which is probably the most-travelled place around here to display alsih20's type of work, is AFAIK know run by the Guild.

Regardless, Maggie Valley would be also be a good place to try, although I don't have a specific list of shops handy right now. A lot of places over there should be getting ready to open for the season and might be looking for new artists.

Sort of big name in the area. I used to pass it every day on the way to work. Never been in there, though.

Big time for potters is still pretty small time.

Ok, these are the entries in the Richmond, VA phonebook for 'pottery'. I don't know if these have galleries of other people's work or not. If there's something more specific I should search for in the phonebook, let me know what it is.
