Potter of the Month cabinet

We have started a new venture to profile one of our members per month in the display cabinet in the kitchen on the left as you enter. It is quite a large space with 3 shelves (110cm by 50cm), glass fronted and lockable. There is a 10% commission on sales and lots of ceramic focused foot traffic passing it every day. The purpose of the cabinet is to showcase and promote pottery to our members, students and the general public – and because of this aim we want to encourage members to submit their name for a turn. Please note the committee have the final say on the order of the roster and all work displayed must be up to exhibition standard. Email or phone Duncan and a list will be drawn up.
