I'm happy to announce that the spring Made of Clay 2002 show is completely sold out.
Wehave a great listof presenters again this year, We hope that all our members will come
down and visit with this yeur’s artists. Participating artists are listed above.

It will definitely be a good weekend on Granville Island. Emily Carr Inatinite will be
having their grad opening that weekend and we again will be having pottery demonstra-
tions during Made of Clay thanks to Pat Schendel and the Fraser Valley Potters Guild.
U2 Can Raku will be going strong near the market so-come on down and paint.afew pots.
And it's our AGM onopening day. Friday May 3. See Rhonda’s article inthe next column
for more details.

The Made of Clay at Christmas show has been booked forthe weekend of November 29
—December 1. This was the only weekend available at the Roundhouse during that time
of year. The majority of the presenters involved preferred the Roundhouse rather than
Performance Works so we will wry itanother year. Hopefully we will have leamed from
OUF experiences amd we can increase attendance. The last sale was good for musi
presenters but we would like to see it fully achieve the revenue that Yaletown is capable
of generating.

Well that's it for this month. [ hope to see vou all down on the Island for the weekend
of May 3-3. We would like to urge our members to spread the word. We will have extra
postcards and posters at the Gallery. If anyone knows of places that they would like to
put them, please do so soon; supplies are Limited. We will also be sending out an cmail
announcement This is for you to forward to your friends. I'm: sure the rest of the
presenters would appreciate this extra help as much as I will.

Hope all is well in beah home and studio
