I will be speaking on Saturday March 14, 2026 at the Second Annual Americana Symposium at Historic Trappe in southeastern Pennsylvania. My talk will be about my article in this year's issue of Americana Insights, titled, Nathaniel Sellers: A Postmaster and Potter of Upper Hanover, Pennsylvania - http://www.earlyamericanceramics.com/2025/10/2025-issue-of-americana-insights.html.

Buy your tickets now for the Second Annual Americana Symposium, March 13–15, 2026!
This year’s symposium examines one of the most beloved aspects of American folk art—Pennsylvania German redware. Focusing on redware’s production, use, and collecting in southeastern Pennsylvania from the mid-1700s to mid-1900s, the third annual Americana Symposium provides fresh insights into renowned potters such as Georg Hubener and Samuel Troxel as well as lesser-known figures. It also delves into the work of twentieth-century potters including Jacob Medinger, considered the last of the traditional Pennsylvania German potters; Henry Chapman Mercer, founder of the Moravian Tile Works and Mercer Museum; and Mildred Weekes Keyser, a pioneering female potter. Held in conjunction with Historic Trappe's landmark exhibition on Pennsylvania German redware and Americana Insight’s third volume, this year’s Americana Symposium is not to be missed!
This year's speakers include Laini Farrare, Christopher Malone, Deborah Miller, Lisa Minardi, Karl Pass, Greg Shooner, Justin Thomas, and Adam Zayas, and a keynote lecture by Johanna Brown. Add-ons to the symposium include a bus trip to visit private and public collections on Friday, March 13, and hands-on workshops on Sunday, March 15.
