MEETING ne

The next meeting of the POTTERS GUILD OF BRITISH COLUMBIA will be held on Wednesday, November 16ta, at Vandusen Gardens, 37th and Oak Street, Vancouver, starting at 7 p.m. with coffee and cakes.

PHOTOGRAPHING POTTERY - a practical approach

Ambitious potters must be able to provide excellent slides and prints of their work for jurying and promotion.

However, photographers are expensive - so to help us learn more about "doing it ourselves", wo have as our guest this month MOYA WATERS from UBC's Museum of Anthropology. Moya did the photography for the "Ceramics '82" catalogue and part of our "Cooking with

Clay" calendar.

After her lecture, she will provide two camera set-ups (with lights and different mats, etc.) for us to experi- ment with. One camera will be loaded with colour-slide film, the other - black and white. We all should bring a couple of our prize pots to photograph. We'll get

the films developed in time to allow for a short criti- quing session at the December meeting.

Note: If you prefer to use your own camera, Moya recommends FEctachrome ASA 200 for eolour slides and +¥ Pan ASA 100 or 125 for black and white.

Workshops 7 As everyone seems to be so busy at this time of year, the ANDREW WONG WORKSHOP has been postponed until the

end of January. Date to be announced in the December Newsletter.
