Jill Tortorella – Antioch Pottery

Please venture out to Hinsdale Illinois August 15 & 16 for the FESTIVAL OF ART! I promise 85 artists in an environmentally safe setting. Masks are required of all of the artists, I will provide hand sanitizer! I have literally hundreds of new designs and colors to share with you. Mention this ad for a VIP discount! I am in space #28 on the corner of Washington and Chicago in Burlington Park by the train station. Call me anytime at 847-852-0636. I am beside myself to see your smiling faces finally!

Its hot outside and there is nothing to do but make pots and swim! It is POSSIBLE I have an art fair on August 15 & 16 in Hinsdale Illinois! A Covid friendly layout in Burlington Park, along the train station and Washington Street. Huge spaces, no sidewalls, masks and sanitizer are the rules. I will reconfigure my booth to be viewed from the outside so there is room to distance ourselves.

Meanwhile my online store is rocking! Visit Etsy.Antiochpottery.com and get a look at all the gifts and treats. I also welcome masked visitors to my studio in Antioch. Just call me and make an appointment to browse! 847-852-0636

Thank you for your support during this tough time. I miss your smiling faces! Look here for the final work on the Hinsdale Art Show in August.

Lots of small businesses like mine are stuck in limbo right now. My shows have all cancelled through June so far! I’m really good at finding a silver lining. I have used my unexpected break to make pots, explore new ideas and FINALLY create an online store via Etsy.com. My store will be called: Antiochpottery BUT it is not all the way up and running til end of next week. I’m super excited! I’ve got all new work going in with click and buy option. Shipping is FREE during this tough time! I am grateful for any and ALL orders, big and small. Below is a direct link to my online store, as yet unfinished:

Meanwhile stay safe, stay well and hug yourself for me! I truly miss you all. 847-852-0636

Its a tough time for all small businesses. In my case, all my spring art shows are cancelling left and right. Ill keep updating the list in the SHOWS tab.

Thanks to all the successful shows in Florida, I am taking a much needed break in order to restock and execute new ideas. My year of shows is all on the website, click “shows” and brouse my super good lineup for 2020. I got into some really good ones! Ill see you in April for St Louis Queeny Park Show, then the travel starts. Thanks for your support. Call me for any of your needs. 847-852-0636
