There
is no charge for admission to our show. Just enter, pick up a basket and shop
among our artist booths. Each item you
choose will be marked with a price. Feel
free to ask our Clayfolk artists questions. They will be wearing badges. If you
fill a basket and are not ready to leave, write your name and attach it to your
basket. Then use the holding tables
while you continue to look around. Once you are ready to go, take your choices
to our cashiers on your way out. There will be two lines of cashiers so that
you may pay by a credit card (Visa or MasterCard only), check or cash. Members
of Clayfolk will paper wrap your selections for traveling home.
We
look forward to seeing you at this year’s show !
Clayfolk members hosted a celebration of Bonnie and Bill Morgan's retirement from Southern Oregon Pottery Supply. Carol Heisel made arrangements for the party to be held at a lovely retreat in Talent. Although Southern Oregon Pottery Supply will be greatly missed, everyone shared Bonnie's delight and excitement as she will soon have time to once again create pottery.
Bonnie Morgan will have a final blow out sale at Southern Oregon Pottery Supply in Talent the week of August 12. Call SOPS directly if specific information is needed.
Joe Brecha, of the Clay Art Center in Tacoma, Washington met with Clayfolk members at the July general meeting, which was held at Susan Casaleggio exquisite home in Jacksonville. Joe assured Clayfolk members that if you have needs that can no longer be met by SOPS, he is ready to take orders for clay, and clay- and glass- related items. He can take individual or full pallet combined orders. CAC offers clay from Laguna, Industrial Minerals, CAC itself and a few other suppliers, as well as a glazes, stains, kilns, wheels, etc. His mini catalog was handed out at the July General Meeting and will be available at the next glaze study meeting or contact him at 800-952-8030 to receive one.

Also, Georgie's of Portland has a supply location in Eugene, and representatives from Georgie's have been invited to our March 2009 general meeting.
