To all of you near and far;
Those I have met in person, those I have not had the pleasure yet;
I wish each and everyone of you the best this holiday season.
However you chose to celebrate my wish is that there is peace in your world, health in your family, love and happiness in your heart.
From my family to you Merry Christmas.

The beauty of its design and the vitality of its content have given
inspiration and pleasure, information and ammunition, to its readers for
more than 40 years. Over eighty issues comprise both a historical
archive and a comprehensive resource that continues to serve the field.
In recognition of the community the journal encompasses, in 2009 we
changed to a membership organization. This framework, which underscores
connection and shared purpose, actually represents a return to SP’s
original mission and a realignment with its nonprofit structure. We
invite readers to participate in Studio Potter as members. Members will
enjoy the following benefits and, most importantly, will be supporting
Studio Potter’s unique legacy and promising future:
Artist talk by Michael Flaherty (www.ceramicfundamentalist.com)
this Saturday, Dec. 14th, 330 Avenue G. South, 1 – 3 p.m., courtesy of
Sask Terra and the Saskatoon Potters Guild. Promises to be interesting!!
The Education Committee invites you to a two part workshop with Mike
Flaherty which will be held in the SPG student room on Saturday, Dec. 14
from 4 – 7 p.m. and Sunday, December 15 from 1 – 4 pm.
Check out http://www.ceramicfundamentalist.com/ and Mike’s blogs.
I don’t know about you but I’m heading into a busy weekend with two exciting events where you can catch my work. (Sadly I’ll only personally be at one!)
If you’re local you can check out Winter Wonders Handmade Market.
Flock and Gather is an artist collective I’m a part of and we volunteer our time every year to organize some pretty awesome sales (if i do say so myself). Tons of awesome vendors and not to be missed if you’re nearby. You can find all the details at flockandgather.blogspot.com
And a little further south, and hopefully a bit warmer, down at Red Lodge Clay Center the exhibition 21st Century Sketchbook will be opening Friday evening (online on Monday). Also worth checking out in person if you’re able.
Exhibition Posted Online: Monday, December 9, 2013 by 10 AM Mountain Time
21st Century Sketchbook is an exhibition showcasing a contemporary
social networking tool-cum-research/inspirational device, a who’s
watching who in contemporary ceramics. The idea for this exhibit came
when we received a google alert after Birdie Boone pinned an image from
the Red Lodge Clay Center website to her board.
Birdie Boone pins Peter Beasecker, Andrew Martin, and Joe Pintz; Mariko
Paterson pins Michael Corney, Jen Allen, and Carole Epp; Emily Schroeder
Willis pins Maren Kloppmann and Sam Chung; Ron Philbeck pins Diana Fayt
and Sandy Simon; Grace Sheese pins Kelly King, Brian Jones, and Pattie
Chalmers.”
So whatever you have planned for the weekend I hope you stay warm and find inspiration in the studio, or have a blast at your holiday sales ( I know so many of us are in the midst of the craft sale season!)
All the best,
Carole
