Pottery Seminar in Cesljeva Bara

Within the project \'Licensing standards for jobs in rural areas\', financed by the German organization for international cooperation - GIZ, Ethno Network organized a one-day educational pottery seminar, on July 24 in Cesljeva bara.

The seminar was attended by members of Ethno network - cooperative \'Jefimija\' from Veliko Gradiste, association \'Misija Kreativa\' from Kladovo and cooperative \'Zanart\' from Negotin, which are involved in the project.

Ziva Pavlovic, potter from Cesljeva bara, inherited this craft from his grandfather, in original form. He demonstrated the way of clay mixing, and techniques of various products – cups, vases, and similar items. Also he showed the old fashioned way of decorating these useful objects, by clay dissolution.

Upon completion of the seminar, participants expressed their satisfaction, and agreed that they will disseminate the knowledge, and produce these useful objects from clay, in order to preserve this old technique of forgetting.
