Lucy Fagella
June 7th, 2026
Massachusetts potter Lucy Fagella will join us this June!
You might know of Lucy through her long-time participation in the Asparagus Valley Pottery Trail, a fabulous weekend of open studios held in the North Hampton & Greenfield area.
​
Lucy has been working with clay for over 40 years. Following her education at Alfred University, Lucy settled in the lush landscape of Western Massachusetts, where she crafts functional pottery and teaches workshops in her decidedly rustic, delightfully inspiring barn-studio setting.
​
Lucy's repertoire includes classic bowls, mugs, and plates, as well as less common forms like the mortar & pestle, garlic keepers, and delightfully small jars. Another arm of her artistic practice is Lucia Urns- making larger scale vessels that delicately hold the ashes of a loved one.
​This 10 AM - 4 PM workshop will feature throwing demonstrations through the morning, followed by a hands-on afternoon exploring the decorative techniques used so frequently in Lucy's work- paper resist and water etching.
Participatory Element
Lucy will give instruction & tips on how to find success in water etching and paper resist.
​
For water etching, participants are asked to bring bone dry greenware in a white clay body without grog.
For paper resist, participants should bring leather hard (carve-able) greenware in any body.
​
If you would prefer, the studio can provide you with pots to practice on! Just select the add-on at checkout.
All pots provided by the studio may be bisqued and clear glazed following the workshop. ​
