ABERTHAU POTTERS CLUB
Q. When are your sales?
A. We have sales twice a year. The next one is Saturday, April 24th at the West Point Grey Community Centre, 4397 West 2nd. The sales start at 10 a.m. and run until 4 p.m.
Q. Can your pots go in the dishwasher and microwave?
A. Unless they are otherwise marked, they can go in the microwave and dishwasher.
Some potters use special techniques, such as Raku, to produce pots which are not dishwasher or microwave safe. These pots are always marked.
Q. Who gets the money from the sales?
A. The club is a non-profit organization. The community gets a quarter of the revenue and the rest goes to the individual potters.
Q. Can anyone make pots at the community centre?
A.
West Point Grey Community Centre offers a variety of pottery courses, which anyone can take. See the staff in the community centre office, website, or brochure.
If you want to join the club, you need to get yourself on the waiting list. We call up new members in September, depending on how many spaces have become vacant.
Club members are entitled to take part in our sales and pot year-round in the studio beside Aberthau.
