Started in 2005, Chawan Expo has been a very successful international non-profit expo
project, touring for exposition in Europe, America and Asia. Independent from politics and
religion, the exposition is organized to foster well friendship between International Ceramist.
It is meant to be a bridge between Artists and international art world, opening new
possibilities for each artist, exposing their Chawan in places that are beyond their reach.
During the period of Expo, there will be seminars, demonstrations and master classes
arranged to encourage a greater scope of sharing between the International and Local
Artists. Also, forthcoming Artists will be invited to create a few works and scheduled to fire
the Thow Kwang Dragon Kiln together. Following the opening of the kiln, a small
exhibition/showcase would be put up to compliment each and every participant for his or her
contributions. A further elaboration of the event will be given after the selection.

Help Christa Assad Get Muddy Again!
When Christa jumped from the second story porch of her burning house, she saved her own life, but she also fractured her lumbar spine. Three weeks later, she is trying to pick up the pieces (after subsequently breaking her nose and lacerating her eye lid!). Her life’s possessions—clothes, books, documents, her mother’s wedding dress— were all lost in the fire.
For the next three months, she must wear a brace that will protect her healing back, will be unable to make a living as an artist, and will be living in temporary housing. Christa is grateful to be alive, but she needs financial help to cover living costs and rehabilitation.
There are two ways to help out:
1. Simply make a donation in the amount of your choice.
2. You can make a donation of $25 or more and enter yourself into a raffle to win art, generously donated from artists within the ceramics community.
$25=one raffle ticket, $50=two raffle tickets, etc…
You can view the donated pieces in the gallery section.
At the time that you donate, specify the name of the artist whose piece you would like
Names of winners will be drawn at the end of the campaign
If your name is drawn, the piece will be shipped to you free of charge by the artist
Every donation, no matter the size counts and is greatly appreciated! Please share and help spread the word. – See more at: http://www.youcaring.com/medical-fundraiser/help-christa-assad-get-muddy-again-/143960#sthash.VGNLve6o.dpuf
