of BRITISH COLUMBIA a Girls just wanna have fun By Lesley Lloyd, Co-chair, Cariboo Potters Guild Members of the Cariboo Potters Guild participated in a showing of works at the Stationhouse Gallery in Williams Lake in October. ‘There was a great variety of pieces showing the diversity of members’ interests. Anna Roberts, one of the founding members, had beautiful burnished pieces made from local clays. Other newer members dabbled in colours, bright and playful. Joan Beck, another long-time member, took the form of a moose and made wonderful, colourful wine goblets perfectly functional and fun to use. The Cariboo Potters Guild has been in existence for over forty years and a show like this demonstrates eee S g that there is wonderful art being produce ‘beyond Hope’. @ The Peep Show! Cash prizes awarded to winning artists. Make a functional kiln plug out of clay. By "Functional" we mean: the plug fits into the peep hole's 1 4 inch opening tapering to 44 of an inch. The Peep Hole Plug needs to support itself while in the peep hole. Plug part should not be glazed. Winners will be notified in mid-February and the 20 finalists to be displayed at the Skutt Booth at NCECA in Tampa 2011. The Peeps will be judged this year by Sheri Leigh O'Connor (Chair -Fine Arts, Sierra Nevada College).
