Membership
Guild membership is open to everyone interested in ceramics.
- Our once monthly get-togethers offer access to our extensive library and an opportunity to learn from invited presenters.
- Our online Discussion Group quickly responds to queries ranging from glazing faults to firing problems, or any subject of interest to our members.
- Several workshops and demonstrations are offered such as our weekend.
- Fall Fire event at the end of summer. Most recently we have had the opportunity to see Steven Branfman, Paula Murray, Leta Cormier, Tim Storey working and discussing their muses.
- Other events include the fun Clay Olympics and the charity fundraiser.
- Great Bowls of Fire which earned close to $14,000 for the Food Bank this year.
- With the monthly newsletter On Fire!, the guild website (www.ottawaguildofpotters.ca) provides news and links to potters and ceramic artists. The website has a gallery of many of our members' works.
- Many of our members teach and have nearby studios which are open to visits. The studio map and teaching members can be found on our website.
- Finally, Guild members organize our fall and spring sales events which have as many as 70 participants.
