Bridges Pottery

Patricia Bridges began working in clay at an early age and has been making pots for many years. Her ceramics training began through the League of New Hampshire Craftsmen in the late seventies. Creating art with emphasis on functional forms - has always been a driving force in her work.

She continued studying ceramics through college, apprenticed for several experienced production potters in Western Massachusetts and maintained a studio of her own. Over the past 20 years her work as a potter has been interwoven with her other endeavors in the corporate world of marketing.

Patricia has a Bachelor of Arts degree from Hampshire College and a Masters of Business Administration in Marketing from Pace University.

She is presently a resident artist at Haven Art in Port Washington, and teaches classes in ceramics. Her work is primarily done on the wheel but she also creates a significant collection of hand built pieces made by slab construction.

Patricia lives in Port Washington New York with her husband, two elementary school age children and Australian Shepherd.
