Can you believe it! Mel's limited edition Mother-in-Law-Blue plate
brought $550 at the Clayart Cocktail party on Wed. night. Then to top
it off, Bill Jones from the American Ceramic Society matched the amount!
Clay It Forward has $1100 to spend on the new book written by Mel
Jacobson. The book will be out this summer.
Joyce Lee will handle the Clay It Forward funds and applications.
Qualifications are: 1) need for learning more about technique ...... 2)
financial straits at the moment .... 3) membership on the Clayart list.
All applicants will remain Anonymous.
Mel's book is about Japanese ceramics and techniques as seen through the
eyes of an American potter/teacher. It will retail for around 25
dollars.
Gregg Lindsey was a fabulous auctioneer! Thank you Greg. And thank you
to all who contributed bids at the auction.
I am continually blown away by the generosity of clayarters.
