Cascade Clay Artists

January 14 – February 18, 2010

Opening "Meet the Artists" Reception:

January 14

5-8pm

The Arts Council of Snohomish County presents the Cascade Clay Artists. The Cascade Clay Artists (CCA) is a group of forty artists working in clay, each with a unique vision. For some members it is their profession and for others a part time avocation. Several are teachers. In studios from Snohomish County to the Canadian border they use porcelain, stoneware, earthenware and other

clays in a stunning variety of methods to make functional pottery, sculptural works and tiles. Their firing techniques range from high fire reduction to midrange electric, and include raku, pit firing, and sagar firing. The show will be a remarkable collection of ceramic work.

Participating artists include: M’Lyn Avera, Patricia Ball, Yonnah Ben Levy, Chaim Bezalel, Patsy Thola Chamberlain, Roger Cocke, Susan Cohen Thompson, Karen Fishburn, Marguerite Goff, Margo Grothe, June Haddox, Erica Herrmann, Kathryn Huckleberry, Makiko Ichiura, Karen Jackson, Judy H. Johnson, Twila Johnson-Tate, Dale LeMaster, Irene Lawson, Lyla Lillis, Rose Moore, Donna K. Perugini, Gwen Shay, Teri Silva, Sarah Swietzer, Greg Tate, Ruth Westra, and many more.

The exhibit will open with a “Meet the Artists” reception on Thursday, January 14 from 5-8pm. This event is free to the public. The gallery is located at 1507 Wall Street in downtown Everett. Gallery hours are Monday through Friday 10-5pm and on Saturday from 11-4pm. For more information call 425-257-8380.
