2008 MEMBERS' EXHIBITION

Susie McMeekin has kindly agreed to judge the 2008 exhibition. Susie is a potter of 25 years' experience who lives in Katoomba in The Blue Mountains, NSW.  Susie is one of few second-generation potters in Australia and is the daughter of Ivan McMeekin, a distinguished Australian potter who was the founder of the Sturt pottery workshop in Mittagong and a founding member of the Potters Society of Australia. Susie started working with her Dad in 1978.  She works in Porcelain and Stoneware clay, concentrating on only a few glazes: Chun, Celadon, Tea Dust and Ying Ching.


 

 

2007 MEMBERS' EXHIBITION

 

Doug Alexander Memorial Award

Chris Harman - AVM?

Open award sponsored by the Canberra Potters' Society - $1000 cash prize

Wondering what AVM? stands for? You're not the only one. When asked, Chris spoke of how, when we see objects, animals and people, we categorize them. Hence AVM? - Animal, Vegetable or Mineral?
