The Arts Council of White Lake-Nuveen Center is exhibiting the work of Peter "The Potter" Johnson and many of his apprentices in its gallery space through Saturday, June 7. The exhibit, titled Peter "The Potter" Johnson: The Art of Apprenticeship, is a snapshot of styles and themes that have resonated with Peter throughout his 60+ years dedicated to clay.
In addition to Peter's work, the exhibit includes artwork from former apprentices Reed Minty (1978), John Dix (1983), Chandra Stubbs (1991), Jennifer Daugherty (1995), Chikako Kitaoka Dix (1998), Chester Winowiecki (2000), Rachel Drelles (2007), Cody Breese Thomas (2009), Autumn Aslakson (2010) and Kim Funk (2021), and an ‘informal apprentice’, Peter’s wife, Jan Johnson.
There will be a closing reception for this show June 7 from 1-3 p.m. This event is free and will feature an artist talk by Peter starting at 1:15.
