Pride and Pottery: A Queer Clay Date

Giselle is a Minneapolis-based potter who has been throwing on and off for 7 years. She honed her craft through form instruction at the Northern Clay Center, learning under locally renowned potters including Sandra Daulton Shaughnessy. She initially grew fond - and just frustrated enough - of wheel throwing to be hooked after intro classes at Dock 6 Pottery, after which she began a 2-year self-taught membership at St. Paul community Northern Lights Art Studio. Giselle continues the family tradition of pottery, growing up in awe of her grandmother’s home studio in Northfield.
