What is produced now is vastly different in complexity of design and color from the original Jobi Pottery. These new functional pieces (do not put in dishwasher) are brightly colored with a simple, repetitive, hand- painted design of a fish. They are striking and whimsical and are priced at a moderate to expensive cost dependent upon size. It was good to stop and see. Did not purchase due to cost vs artistry.

In addition to events they have all kinds of classes as well as yoga sessions available. This evening we went to a fascinating lecture presented by Mark Bittman and Doc Willoughby. Doc Willougby , who is also a good writer, interviewed Mark Bittman about his new book: Animal, Vegetable,Junk: A History of Food from Sustainable to Suicidal. The Truro Center sent us emails urging people to carpool since they were expecting a huge crowd snd Prior to the event, had the opportunity to speak with Susan Kai Schwartz , the Program Manager, who assured me that if I arrived thirty minutes early, I'd be able to find parking. When we arrived, the first person we met was Bruce Player, the Program Coordinator. Bruce greeted us like we were old friends, even though we had never met! He urged us to take our lawn chairs and find a good place to sit for the lecture and when I asked, don't you want to see my ticket?, Bruce assured me he'd find us but was more interested in our comfort. My wife and I were impressed with everything we experienced at the center. They served refreshments that were reasonably priced and while I had promised myself I wouldn't buy another book, Mark Bittman's talk was so stimulating and delightful, I felt we needed to read it immediately! The other wonderful aspect of the evening is that we didn't get one mosquito bite! They had a special machine that kept the mosquitoes away. The center also had beautiful restrooms inside their buildings. I strongly urge you to check out their website and make and plan to visit the Truro Center for the Arts when you are vacationing on the Cape.

The host introduced the act, first honoring with acknowledgment of traditional land of the Wompanoags. The band came on 8:20. They ended 10 PM. Their entertainment was top level. The acoustics were horrendous. I am unsure it was the band's system or Payomet. Otherwise, a wonderful night.
