SUMMARY:Virtual Lecture – Lineage: Genealogy and the Power of Connection in Early America
DESCRIPTION:Genealogy is everywhere– online\, on screens\, through organizations and conferences and more. But technologies aside\, genealogy was everywhere in the 1700s\, too. And while we may think of Americans living in the 1700s as largely the subject of genealogy research\, they were active participants in what was a foundational interest and practice in their own time. Family histories were deeply meaningful for diverse early Americans\, but it was also baked into the very structures of their society through law\, politics\, and religion. From deep research across 18th-century British America\, Karin Wulf’s new book\, Lineage: Genealogy and the Power of Connection in Early America\, examines how we can understand the role of genealogy then\, and its impact now.

Students should be able to throw a small cylinder and a small bowl. In this class\, we will refine our throwing skills to make lighter\, better-centered pots. We will also explore more complex forms\, including lidded pieces and pouring pots and work on details like rims\, feet\, handles\, etc. Bring an old towel\, a sketchbook and lots of ideas.\nSupplies: Your first block of clay is included in the materials fee\, along with kiln firings and glazing. Any additional blocks of clay can be purchased during class or studio time.\nTeaching Artist: Renata Mastroti-Kunkel\,\n(For more information\, please contact the instructor at renata@rmastrotipottery.com).
