Profiles North Bay 2024
I am thrilled to share with you the story about the Terra Linda Ceramic Artists, featured in the Bohemian and Pacific Sun publications: Profiles North Bay 2024 "Faces of the NORTH BAY 2024". Honored to be "The Face" of Ceramics Education and Artistic Expression.
A word from North Bay Bohemian, Daedalus Howell, Co-Editor & Simone Wilson, Co-Editor
Welcome to our inaugural issue of Profiles—a magazine dedicated to highlighting the people who make the North Bay the extraordinary place it is. Throughout, we shine a light on those who have managed to rise above the humdrum of daily life in Sonoma, Napa and Marin counties and impress us with their vision—not to mention their knack for simply being interesting.
So, sit back, relax and prepare to meet the remarkable individuals from Sonoma, Napa and Marin who are defining the area on their terms. They’ve pivoted, they’ve innovated—and most importantly, they’ve kept us inspired.
Faces of the NORTH BAY 2024 begins page 21 and our story is on page 43. Here is the link to read about us, enjoy! Faces of the NORTH BAY 2024

Totems are common in spiritual traditions and found in many different cultures. They can describe societal-tribal-family roles, responsibilities, relationships, history, important events, legends and myths, the cycles of life and death, nature, and the cosmos. Totems can simply be aesthetically pleasing without a specific purpose. In this show, more than 30 TLCArtists will share their interpretation of a totem, these might stand, hang or take on unusual shapes. Don't miss it!
