Nationally Known Potter Comes to the Edina Art Center
Edina, Minn., April 27, 2015 – Nationally known potter Bill van Gilder will present a three-day workshop in May at the Edina Art Center. A reception and presentation will be held 6 to 9 p.m. Friday, May 15. The artist will conduct an in-depth workshop 9:30 a.m. to 4:30 p.m. Saturday, May 16 and Sunday, May 17.
Bill van Gilder has had a distinguished career in pottery. van Gilder has been a professional potter for more than 45 years. He began his career at age 15, apprenticed in England and Ireland, and received a degree from the Harrow School of Art in London. He managed two large pottery training centers in Lesotho and Swaziland in Southern Africa. van Gilder returned to the United States in 1979 and established a studio and gallery atop South Mountain in central Maryland where he continues to work today.
