IST_IN RESID A DIO The Potters Guild studio space on Granville Island has been the home for once monthly Guild meetings and occasional workshops for several years now. Various plans have been put forward to more fully use the apace. but most have falled because the Guild was simply trying to do too many things with one small space. Following is a plan to use the space as 4 one year rotating artist- in-residence studio, constructed, equipped and subsidized by the Potters Guild. The Guild will equip the studio space with shelving. work tables and an electric kiln (total cost around $1,000 to $1,500). A jury will select one in-residence potter for a one year only period, starting January 1. 1968. The following September or October a new candidate will be selected. Qualified candidates will be either accomplished artists wishing to explore new avenues of work, or artists attempting to establish his/her work in the marketplace for the first time. Fent will be $100 per month, with the Guild paying the remaining $113. The artist will be responsible for utilities, telephone and firing costs. The selected artist will be given an option for a one-person show in the Gallery of B.C. Ceramics in the fall. This wse meets the approval of the other studio members in back, and Granville Island Trust. It @lso helps fulfill the Guild's goals as 4& charitable and educational organization. The meetings and workshops would eventually be moved to another loca- tion such as the Community Centre or (College. If a location can be found on Granville Island, then the Gallery and the library can remain open at the beginning of meetings. Whatever happens, the use of the space cannot continue as is. It is too expensive and Granville Island Trust wants it used as studio space. To temporarily solve both of these problems, Bob Bush will be subletting the space until January 1, 1988. The money from rental will be put aside to help pay for the cost of setting up the artist-in-residence studio. Thig proposal will be brought up at the next monthly meeting for com- ments. ofr members can write directly to the Gulld in this regard.
