target=\"_blank\">Ogden Museum <\/a>of Southern Art and titled\u00a0\"The Art of the Cup: Functional Comfort\".\u00a0 I was very pleased to be included in this event and happy that at least my tumblers were heading to New Orleans even if it is without me.\u00a0<\/p>\r\n<p style=\"text-align: left;\">The exhibition\u00a0is put on by\u00a0The Center for Southern Craft and Design, and if you happen to be in the area\u00a0it opens November 12th and closes on December 13th.<\/p>\r\n\r\nSince the organizers wanted me to send along some images of the pieces I was sending, it was a great chance to hold onto some of my favorite pieces from the last firing and try to get some images of those too.\u00a0 It's great to get the images of the pieces, but also just to keep them around\u00a0for a bit for observation.\u00a0\r\n\r\n<div\n\tclass=\"ngg-galleryoverview ngg-ajax-pagination-none\"\n\tid=\"ngg-gallery-c3dbc38f5e76f8086357463a912011ab-1\">\n\n    \t\t<!-- Thumbnails
