Dena Perlmutar
Dena started working in clay when she was in high school. In the years since then, she has dabbled in sculpture, pottery and jewellery design.

Dena retired from teaching in 2014. She took a number of pottery classes until joining Woodlawn Pottery in March of 2017. Dena’s work includes:
