Canada Week: Prince Edward Island Craft History with Henry Purdy & the Scott Family

Today’s Tales of a Red Clay Rambler Podcast episode features a conversation about the history of craft on Prince Edward Island with Henry Purdy, Ian Scott, and Daphne Large Scott. We talk about a wide range of topics including the era when TV first came to PEI, the back to the land movement and the School of Visual Arts at Holland College. In the second part of today’s episode I talk with Suzanne Scott about taking over the family business and how she uses social media to grow the audience for Village Pottery. For more information about Village Pottery please visit www.villagepottery.ca.

This episode of the Tales of a Red Clay Rambler Podcast is part of Canada week, featuring interviews with Canadian Clay artists from Prince Edward Island, Nova Scotia, Saskatchewan, and Alberta.
