Canadian Ceramic Artist Robin Hopper honored with Order of Canada

“To coincide with the centennial of Canadian Confederation,
the three-tiered order was established in 1967 as a fellowship that
recognizes the outstanding merit or distinguished service of Canadians
who make a major difference to Canada through lifelong contributions in
every field of endeavour, as well as the efforts by non-Canadians who
have made the world better by their actions. Membership is accorded to
those who exemplify the order’s Latin motto, desiderantes meliorem patriam, meaning “they desire a better country”, a phrase taken from Hebrews 11:16.[2]
The three tiers of the order are Companion, Officer, and Member;
specific individuals may be given extraordinary membership and deserving
non-Canadians may receive honorary appointment into each grade.”

Ben Carter and Molly Hatch
are running a new session of THINK BIG! and Think Big 2 at the same
time! So if you missed out on
the opportunity to take one of these in the past, your opportunity is
here to take the series you missed starting January 5th, 2017!
BOTH SERIES START JANUARY 5th, 2017 AND END FEBRUARY 16th, 2017
All content available through March 30, 2017. Remember, you get to work at your own pace!
How does the E-Series work?
Each week Ben Carter or Molly Hatch host a themed
conversation built around a topic that will help you discover ways to
find new audiences, market your business and sell your work. These
interviews are available at your own pace and will be released once a
week for six consecutive weeks. After all the lectures have been posted,
you will STILL have an additional six weeks to access course
information and bonus materials to continue work AT YOUR OWN PACE!
Participants are encouraged to discuss the videos each
week with a prompted discussion group online. Through the discussion
board you can connect with other members of the series and reflect on
questions and new ideas that come up for you each week. Molly and Ben
will be watching the group discussions and joining in to add our
experience with the topic. The discussions are ongoing and accessible
throughout the entire series, so you can participate at your own pace,
regardless of your time zone.
In addition to the weekly interviews and discussions
downloadable worksheets will help you work through topics each week and
generate task lists for getting your goals achieved! The worksheets are
for you to keep and work through as you engage with the course material.
By the end of the six weeks, you will have gathered new thoughts and
ideas, and you will have a clear direction moving forward in your
creative business–on to BIG THINGS
