A Ceramist's Eye View of The Thimi, Nepal Potters Community by Reid Harvey - 1 March 2003 Newari Ceramist Hari Govinda Prajapati in front of his Madhyapur Clay Crafts Studio The members of the Newari ethnic group, potters' community of Thimi, Nepal, all have the same last name: Prajapati. In the Newari language this means 'potter.' So in the English translation my collaborator and good friend, Hari (shown above), would be, 'Hari Potter.' Among the gifted in the community at combined artistic and technical aspects of ceramics, this Hari works his own special magic in the art and wares he creates. Thimi has been a hive of potters' activity for hundreds of years, the traditions handed down from one generation to the next, and Hari's family has been among the prominent. This is a story of the Newari Potters Community, also focusing on Hari Govinda, a member who is typical of those who have had the good fortune of more education. By far the largest of Nepal's potter communities, Thimi consists of several thousand potter families, with about 8,000 individual members involved in some aspect of pottery. Wares of many types are produced in the community, various pottery items that are in use in every day life throughout the Kathmandu Valley, and in the hills beyond. Among items that are specific to the traditions of Nepal are: Buddhist and Hindu religious statuary, architectural terra cotta, roof tiles, pottery space heaters (for the chilly December/ January cold season) and innumerable specialty items. The list goes on and on. Many other of the more common pottery wares are typical of those produced and used throughout the southerly countries: pottery containers for water storage and for cooking, flower pots of all sizes, and many kinds of decorated, functional ware.

Solutions A to Z Clay Time Clay crafts from FamilyFun by Valerie Kohn of 6 Like safety scissors and nonspill paint jars, recipes for homemade clays have won over many a parent with a penchant for crafts. In addition to being less expensive than their store-bought counterparts, home varieties are often easier to manipulate, especially for children who are just learning to think in three dimensions. The ingredients, all common kitchen staples, take only minutes to mix, which means a near-instant project for your children and one less trip to the art store for you. There are dozens of such recipes (every art teacher has a favorite), but these four have the approval of many satisfied sculptors. PLAY CLAY This popular recipe produces a clay that can be used over and over again and will remain pliant for weeks. A child just learning to model will appreciate how soft and cooperative this dough feels in her hands, especially when it's still warm. Materials 1 cup flour 1 cup water 1/2 cup salt 1 teaspoon vegetable oil 1/2 teaspoon cream of tartar Food coloring (optional) Mix all ingredients together in a saucepan and cook over medium heat until the mixture holds together (keep mixing or it will stick to the bottom of the pan). When the clay is cool enough to touch, your child can knead it on a floured board.
