Meet the Maker (Virtual Event)

Self-taught and local ceramic artist, Julie Kittredge is no stranger to creative entrepreneurship. Starting with sketching portraits in the early days, to a 10-year family photography business, and now her ultimate dream of throwing pottery in her home studio, Julie is passionate about encouraging creators and makers of all kinds to step out into the one-of-a-kind call of their heart. Join us live on Zoom to hear what she’s learned in her journey as a maker, how to step out of the fear of failure, get a peek inside her studio, and an inside look at getting started in clay! You will leave inspired to step into your own gifts that make you one-of-a-kind. Bring your questions!
