the groundhog kiln on the pottery center lawn. The firing of the
groundhog kiln takes approximately 15 hours and uses 2 cords of wood.
The public is welcome to come out to view the firing and see how the

Ying-Yueh Chuang in Protrusion
four artists in this exhibition are unified by the idea of protrusion.
In the Red Room, Lynn Kelly’s site-specific felted tree installation
made for the Festival will protrude from the floor and appear to
puncture the ceiling, reappearing in the second floor stairwell. Magda
Wojtyra’s landscape of colourful cones springs out from the wall into a
spiked magical landscape. Robyn Thomas’s magazine hooked Flare spikes
out from the surface. Ying Yueh-Chuang’s solo exhibition in the Roastery
Coffee House features ceramic flowers protruding from her fabric
backgrounds.
