Stephen was an early member of the Folk Art Guild and developed glazes and cameo wares. Mr. Leftwich is a member of the Folk Art Guild and is the author of “Pisgah Forest and Nonconnah, The Potteries of Walter B. Stephen”. He began studying the historical techniques of Western North Carolina Pottery in the 1970s. In addition to presenting a multimedia talk, Mr. Leftwich will display examples of this pottery style.
