Alberta/BC in a Box
Quentin Randall at Medalta has sent this invitation to the joint showing of Alberta/BC in a Box. I saw the Alberta part late last year (see posts for Wide Open Nov 17/11) and as mentioned yesterday the complete BC part will be shown in Seattle as part of NCECA. Our theme is On the Edge. I'm looking forward to connecting with other BC potters at the opening. Apparently we can wear a 'Potter from BC' button if we stop by the BC Potters Guild table at the Conference Centre. I'm considering volunteering for a couple of hours but first need to take a careful look at the agenda of presentations.

BC Potters at NCECA
There is an extensive review by member Kathryn O'Regan of Brendan Tang's talk to the Contemporary Arts Society the other day, illustrated with several of Brendan's complex Manga Ormolu creations.
Our BC in a Box show, which is currently being shown in Medicine Hat with the Alberta version, will be part of the huge selection of Ceramics shows in and around Seattle for NCECA in late March. That's an exciting opportunity for the BC guild. Also showing in the same gallery will be work by the 'Fired-Up' collective of mainly Vancouver Island clay artists. Details below:
