(ASL) We interview potter Linda Fletcher, our January 25, 2025 Arts Saturday visual artist.
Linda A. Fletcher has been making art since she was old enough to use a box of Crayola crayons. She started taking oil painting lessons when she was 8 years old; but in high school she got her hands on clay for the first time and knew this would be her chosen medium. Twelve years later she found the pottery studio at the Nashua Center for the Arts and spent several years taking classes from various teachers and eventually started teaching there. This job led to meeting someone looking for a pottery teacher for Bishop Guertin High School where she has been teaching for 28 years. During this time, she attended the NH Institute of Art and earned a Bachelor of Fine Arts degree. She continues to create in clay, working in her home studio in Manchester, NH. She has been a juried member of the League of NH Craftsmen and a longtime member of the NH Potters Guild where she is currently the Co-chairperson as well as part of the Education and Empty Bowls committees.

    *A German concept not a Jewish one* if you are born of a Jewish mother, or a convert, you are a Jew. Not 50% not 33-1/3rd per cent, you are a Jew. It's shameful that there exist Jewish people who apply this concept because they didn't read the damn manual (Torah).

    I just don’t get why grown women must still try to tear each other down in the most backhanded ways. As a grown up, educated woman you think she’d be able to speak honestly to Dawn about how her posts etc were making her feel. America is so obsessed with racial politics… I think people need to just chill out and stop making social wars between various social groups like they tend to. In Australia there are so many diverse and mixed race people… we celebrate the beauty in people’s different cultures more! As a second generation Japanese Australian I know this to be true from my perspective as well.

    Mockery, gaslighting, and bullying also keep us apart, wouldn't you say? There's no shame in finding someone's behavior sanctimonious, narcissistic, or racist, or in satirizing it. But writing a story as undisguised and as flagrantly shaming of a living person as yours first was, then gaslighting the person when they confront you, and then assuming that you'll get away with it because the other mean girls (and boys) will stand behind you: that's pretty cringeworthy.
