On Friday, July 5 at 8:30 pm and Saturday, July 6 at 5:30 pm on Art Rocks!, (episode #107), meet Pineville, Louisiana potter Ken Tracy, who produces his signature cobalt blue vessels by drawing and carving beautiful botanic designs onto them. Next, learn about an I Love Lucy stage adaptation in Boston, and how you go about cleaning a 17th century tapestry. Plus, the Impressionist artist Edgar Degas spent some time painting in New Orleans, and we'll visit the beautifully preserved home where he lived during his stay, a Louisiana Treasure now known as The Degas House.
