Guests will join in colonial dances, eat tavern food, participate in period political discussions, learn about holiday, wedding, and hospitality traditions, play colonial games, watch excerpts from colonial-era plays, and engage in storytelling as told by slaves who celebrated the holiday.


Clay and Glass Fusion: Pottery by Kerry Brooks

Fused Glass and Pottery Bowl

Blue Plate and Serving Bowls

New arrivals at Brooke Pottery include uncommonly beautiful fused glass and clay works by Minnesota potter Kerry Brooks. A founder of Dock 6, a collective of potters in Minneapolis formed in the late 1990′s, Brooks has been working with clay for over 20 years. Kerry’s masterful feel for clay is obvious in the playful forms and colorful mix of textured glazes of her high-fired stoneware. Hurry in to see the new collection of dinnerware, baking dishes, serving pieces and coasters at Brooke Pottery. It’s been turning heads all week, with several pieces already headed out the door! Note: While all Dock 6 Pottery is food safe, only the solid pottery pieces may be used in the microwave, oven and dishwasher. Pieces incorporating fused glass are appropriate for dry foods and must be hand-washed.
