ABOUT THE ARTIST

I would like to take a moment to briefly introduce myself. Beth Ann Maragas, Canton Ohio native and studio potter in Chagrin Falls. I've studied ceramics which included pleasurable and inspirational experiences from The Cleveland Institute of Art; Clayworks; Haystack Mountain School of Crafts, Deer Isle, Maine; and Penland School of Crafts, Penland, North Carolina.

BAM pottery is wheel-thrown and hand built from stoneware, porcelain and raku, using lead free glazes and oxides. All functional ceramic designs are microwave and oven safe.
