*CERAMICS '80

Do you remember the early days of the 6.C. Potters Guild? Do you remember the peo-
ple you worked with then? Yo you know where they are now and what they are doing?
Wouldn't it be fun ‘to have a Family: reundont

The Guild is planning to celebrate its 25th anniversary by holding a restrospective
show of work by all those members of the Guild who have had pottery in national or
international shows. We hope it will also include some work of the province's
pioneer potters.

The show will be held at Robson Square early in the spring of 1980. It could be a
very impressive show but we need YUE help to make sure we find all the potters
whe qualify.

We would like three pieces from each potter, if possible one early piece, one in-
termediate and one late piece, and because the pieces need not be for sale they

could be chosen from private collections. wWe would expecially welcome those
that have been in other shows.

We neal your help to make the show complete, if you qualify or know the whereabouts
of someone who does please write or call (collect) Ruth Meechan, #8-2431 Vine St.,
Vancouver, V6K 3K7. Phone: 731-1991.
