TriCity Potters show opens

TriCity Potters' first show opened last Thursday evening in the 3D Gallery of Port Moody's Arts Centre. The two ceramic and two painting shows were enthusiastically received. Here are photos of those potters I managed to catch next to their work. I've made a picasa album of images of all the work - it's too many photos for here.

The three-year-old TriCity Potters will have their first show in September at the Port Moody Arts Centre. The 3D Gallery there should be perfect for our show. Come and see the variety of work that our members do!
