Dear Fditor:

Our Ceramic Club received a grant from the Cultural Fund to assist in
setting up a workshop.

The Adult Education Class joined with us to make a total of twenty-six
people taking part in a five-day workshop with Frances Hatfield of
Oyama, B.C., instructing.

The five days were both interesting and informative and all potters
taking part agreed that it was a very successful week.

Sincerely (Mrs Pat Munro), Smithers Ceramic Club

Committee Report

A Message from the President

The President has received a letter from Tam Irving heading up the
Committee for Ceramics 69. There are some comments which will
be listed below.

It is my opinion that this should be the last exhibition of this type that
we, a8 members of a pottery group, have anything to dowith. For the
simple reason is that, as potters, we have progressed beyond the
ideas expressed in this, to my mind, old fashion thing.

The members of the Committee worked for years. It is no exaggeration
to say that no committee has worked so hard etc. | have read the files of

requests for support. They will become available to members as soon
as the library and files are established.

The comments below (while I personally do not agree with some of them,
namely item #2, for I believe that non-potters sometimes do make
good jurors of pottery shows), Iam awaiting with bated breath
