"CERAMICS 83" COOKING WITH CLAY

An Exhibition and Sale of Gcod and Better Quality Kitchen
and Tableware.

Robson Square Media Centre
November 22nd to December 3rd.

As you know, this "Theme Show" is promoting functional
pottery, more specifically kitchen and tablewares. All
entries so far have been of a high calibre, including severa-
potters who specialize in dinner sets. We are also looking
for unique entries, and even if you only make one functional
item, we would like to see it!

Up to half of the space will be used for exhibition and
display, the other being primarily sales apace. There
will be displays of such items as teapots/tea sets,
cookinz pots/casseroles, serving dishes, etc., as well as
some tables set with complete table settings.

If you are worried about committing yourself to tco many
sales, consider entering a few "choice" pieces to the
exhibition area, thereby still supporting the Guild in this
effort to expose and promote quality functional pottery.

On the other hand, our sale is one of the last of the year,
which nay be an opportune tine for you to market your
unsold work.

Sales: We anticipate excellent sales with our event booked
in such a prime shopping location at the height of the
season, Hycroft was an established sale with a high

stock turnover, and during the last two years we have
developed a strong mailing list of people who buy pota!
Furthermore we plan an extensive publicity campaigm for
the West End and an advertising campaign in shops along
Robson and Granville Streets. Large colourful banners
outside at Robson Square will help identify us and bring
people downstairs to the Media Centre. Remember, this

is our Guild Fund Raioor for 1983/84 so PLEASE SUBMIT WORK
AND SUPPORT THE GUILD. The entry fee is only $15.00 -
plus 30% commission with all work accepted on a consignment
basis and no limit on stock as this is a two week sale!
