Come collect your Tiles!


First, the tile exhibition is down from the Learning Gallery.  So... if you were one of the students that was involved, please come by the ceramics studio to pick up your tiles.  We do have extra boxes and wrapping material around so it will be easy enough to package up your piece.

Next, the ceramics studio is happy to host Leanna Carlson as our resident artist.  She is working on developing interesting clay bodies using unique local and international materials.  Be sure to drop by and say hello.

The next artist talk for ART 101 will be on October 21 at 7:00 in the Margaret Parsons Theatre.  The visiting artist will be Jason deHaan.  This lecture is free and open to the public.

Finally, the APA has an online survey, and if you complete it you can enter to win one of four memberships for this upcoming year:

"WIN 4 FREE MEMBERSHIPS
The Alberta Potters’ Association has been representing the interests of Alberta clay artists since 1968. Since that time the industry has undergone many changes. We have heard from some of our members that some of these changes are good and some are not, so now we want to hear from everyone involved in ceramics, from clay artists of every persuasion: functional, sculptural and everything in between; teachers, educators and administrators involved in ceramics; gallery owners, clay suppliers and retail businesses. We want to hear from you!
Tell us what you think and what you need to make this a successful industry in Alberta.
Our strategies for 2014 and beyond will be based on your answers. This survey is seeking general information initially to determine broad stroke needs, and then with further discussion with you, focus in on detailed strategies.
PLEASE TAKE OUR SURVEY " - APA
