Frances Palmer's Garden

Fri, Sep 13, 2024
10:00 AM- 1:00 PM

Frances Palmer has been making ceramics since 1987. She was trained as an art historian and yet has always made work with her hands. First as a printmaker and now as a potter and gardener, she loves the process of changing ideas into form. This program will be hosted by Frances in her studio and garden in Westport, a longtime Open Days favorite, giving participants an intimate peek into her creative process.

After a welcome with coffee, tea, and a cake baked by Frances, she will take participants through her two cutting gardens. At this time of year, the dahlias will be in full array. Then, she will discuss which flowers are best for cutting and how to arrange and photograph them, followed by a delicious boxed lunch from a local bakery.
