This clay class is in collaboration with Suze’s PCA production, “Best Little Whorehouse in Texas” which is set in LaGrange, Texas on The Chicken Ranch. Times grew harder during the Depression and the Ranch adopted the “poultry standard” as a payment method and soon chickens were everywhere. The meat and the eggs provided the household with plenty of food and extra income. The brothel was listed on the tax rolls as a poultry farm.
