About this listen

In this debut episode of The Makers Movement podcast, host Kelsey sits down with ceramicist Olivia Avery to explore her journey from reluctant art student to successful full-time maker. Olivia shares how she accidentally discovered her love for ceramics, the evolution of her distinctive stippling technique, and the surprising story behind her "ogre vase" that became an unexpected bestseller.

Join us as we discuss the value of handmade work in a mass-produced world, the community that forms when artists support each other, and how trading handmade goods enriches our daily experiences. Whether you're a fellow maker or simply appreciate the human touch behind handcrafted items, this conversation celebrates the beauty and value of choosing handmade in our increasingly digital world.

This month's Makers Movement theme: Something that makes your favorite food even more enjoyable!
