2012 Featured Artists

‘The Featured Artist slot affords a non-juried artist the opportunity to sell work in the gallery
for a month-long period. All Guild members are eligible to apply, and may show work other
than the mugs and tiles to which non-juried potters are usually restricted. A few time slots
remain for 2012, and we're hoping to fill them all. The application process is simple, and no
physical work needs to be submitted for evaluation. Please apply using forms posted here:

March featured artist Ekta Nadeau:

Playing with clay is a passion for me. I get
strong ideas, sink my hands into the clay
and go further, losing and loosing myself in
form and texture. The clay brings focus to
the moment and refreshing playfulness to
life. My sense of fulfillment is enriched when
people touch and are touched by my pottery.
‘This show presents decorative and functional
hand built organic forms and wheel thrown

pieces—all handmade and unique work. Clay
pieces are bisqued, and then fired to Cone 6 in
an electric or gas kiln.
