Marquette – A series of diverse presentations will highlight Northern Michigan University’s celebration of Women’s History Month. The topics include a historical look at Ishpeming factory workers, reflections of a world-renowned ceramic sculptor and the personal journey of a children’s rights activist.
Anne Drew Potter, who was named the 2009 Emerging Artist by the National Council for Education in the Ceramic Arts, will spend a week at NMU creating a full-size sculpture from start to finish.
