On today's episode of NCECA 360 we have a special presentation of Clay Stories from our Two Thousand fifteen conference in Providence,RI. Curated by Steven Branfman and Owen Dearing Clay Stories features ceramic artists telling true stories in front of a live audience at our yearly NCECA conference. If you are a fan of the story telling podcasts the Moth Radio Hour or Risk you are going to love this episode. Today you will hear Ron Roy, Debra Chronister, Robin Hopper and a handful of other storytellers talk about the moments that challenge and inspire their lives in clay.
