Kevin's Bio: A resident of Westport, Kevin was a Silvermine Guild Arts Center faculty member since 1997, a Guild Artist since 2000, and a Past President, Board of Directors, for the Loft Artist Association in Stamford in 2001. Kevin was an art adjunct teacher at NYU since 2001 and will be returning to the university next year. Kevin is also well known for his generosity in spirit and time supporting local agencies such as The Child Guidance Center of Stamford's annual gala donating large ceramic pieces and his participation at the Annual Art in the Yard for the Sexual Assault Education Center in Stamford.  Thomas has worked as an assistant to sculptor Tony Hepburn and installed for clients such as David Zwirner Gallery, Katy Shimert, Ann Chu, Margaret Khal and Judith Webber.  

 

Greetings,
 
One of our friends and a major contributor to the Fairfield County art community, Kevin Thomas, was seriously injured in a car accident over two years ago.   His chances of survival due to the many serious injuries including sever brain injuries, were slim.
 
After enduring the initial months of intensive care, the hope of leading normal life and returning to pottery seemed impossible. However, today after an intense fight over two years, we are glad to share what was unimaginable only a short while ago -- Kevin is back on the potter's wheel!
 
To celebrate this amazing human story and help Kevin with his new gift of life, Lakeside Pottery, Ceramic School and Studio in Stamford, CT will be hosting an art sale and show all with Kevin's very recent beautiful work on December 5 and 6, 2009.  See show details and Kevin's Bio on left.
