Dear Clayarter's,

Canada
from Holland not many years ago. Bibi traveled Japan a few years ago to =
study
Japanese pottery and had the tremendous opportunity to meet Master Potter =
and
Kiln Builder Yasuo Terada. Now, as good friends, Bibi has invited Yasuo to
visit Canada for the second summer in two years and will be present as a =
visitor
at the International Ceramic Workshop Alberta '99.

I had the great pleasure of getting to work with both of these fantastic =
people
last summer at Series '98 in Red Deer Alberta. Bibi and Yasuo are both
wonderful, warm, loving and sharing people. I can't say enough about them.

The workshop arose out of the many requests received from participants in =
last
years workshops. The emphasis is on working together and sharing with each
other. A professional filmaker will document the full 2 week workshop on =
video
- copies will be available for a small fee.

Fees: =24800.00 Canadian
