Tomorrow the fellow executive members of TriCity Potters will meet here to discuss final arrangements for next Wednesday’s meeting, the Vincent Massey workshop in a couple of weeks and other speakers and hands-on activities for the rest of the year. June MacDonald spoke to Fraser Valley Potters Guild last Thursday so she can tell us all about that. It was a dreadfully rainy night for June to drive out to Surrey but I gather she had Eliza Wang’s company for the drive. Linda and I had tickets to the Opening Gala evening of Port Moody Canadian Film Festival and saw ‘Incendies’. It won the best film Genie award that night! And it’s a moving, thought-provoking film, set in Canada and Lebanon with a shocking revelation at the end. We heard that we had all voted it the best of the festival this evening.

Heather Cairns of North Vancouver will be TriCity Potters featured speaker at our Wednesday March 16th meeting. 7pm at Port Moody Senior Secondary School. All are welcome. Heather’s work is wheel-thrown, functional cone 6, decorated with colours and black brush-strokes. She plans to show pictures of her work and do a demonstration of her painting technique. These photos were taken at the Gallery of BC Ceramics in February.
