MEETING

Well, all you friendly potters out there, you caught us by surprise this time. The
response to our last meeting was wonderful:

There were “a few snage", to put it mildly, but we hope you will come again and
let us show you our organized side.

Many thanks to Jané, who saved our bacon with informative answers to many
questions.

Next month, come and join us in a jump from the medieval to the contemporary
with Kathryn Youngs. Kathryn is a sculptor/painter who draws some of her
inspiration from Cezanne and Picasso. Her pots can be seen in the Gallery.

Kathryn was featured in the Sun early in January. She will be demonstrating
and showing slides. Questions are welcome!

See you Wednesday, March 19th at 7:00 p.m. at 1359 Cartwright Street.

Dear Members:

As well as carrying out the usual duties, the Board of Directors is busy
organizing the Guild's office above the Gallery. We are attempting to central-
ize and organize all of the records of the Guild. Different historical data
has been scattered far and wids as past Executive Boards changed, etc. If any
of the past Executive members aut there still retain any records or infor-
mation pertaining to the Guild, please contact us at 669-5645 so that we may
complete this vital task. Anyone with any office equipment they would like

to donate, or volunteer time, we would be very happy to hear from you.

The most stimulating pews is the upcoming workshop with Harlen House, in
conjunction with his exhibit at the Alexandra Gallery. We are proud to beqi4
this East-West dialogue betweey Canadian potters. The workshop promises to
be most informative and is only the beginning of a very ambitious workshop
program in our new premises.

I would like to thank Jane Williams for her mini-workshop at the last general
meeting and add that it was great to see such a large turnout of members. B:
sure not to miss the next in this series of related workshops with Kathryn
Youngs .

Also, congratulations to those artists whose work was chosen from the Gallery
for the Ministry of External Affairs. Qur new profile is beginning to pay
off!

David Zawaduk
President
