They would have been lost if my nine-year old had not been curious enough to open the kiln that was moved from the UBC Fine Arts Studio into the Scarfe Building Education Ceramics Studio. ‘Thereafter, the card file was moved from shelf to shelf in the studio until 1t was surreptitiously transferred to the Potters’ Guild for archival storage and officially gifted by UBC Art Education to the Potters’ Guild. For the past year, Debra Sloan and I have been exploring numerous ideas for sharing and publishing the information tn this newly acquired archive. This card file contains important recipes along with a record of the active potters in the 1970s, ceramic materials vendors and suppliers. Glenn Lewis originally compiled this card file when he installed and managed the Ceramics Studio in the Scarfe Building. Through another series of fortunate coincidences, Debra Sloan and I were able to contact Glenn Lewis this spring and spent an afternoon looking over the cards and listening to him reminisce about the potters, recipes and times when these potters talked about the nuances of their clay bodies and glazes. Two more gifts in kind came to this archival project: Celia King, Emily Carr book-arts instructor and book designer, took an interest in this material and met with me to talk about design concepts; the archiving committee was granted a summer intern/volunteer, Sun Young Kim, better known to us as “Wonder”, who scanned all 300+ cards into digital format. ee More to come.
