Just wanted to throw this out to all the avid potters of ClayArt. The =
Friends
of Medalta Society is now on the web. Please check out our site at
http://www.medalta.org and don't forget to add us to your Favourites as we =
are
constantly doing upgrades to the site.

We have some exciting things happening here in Medicine Hat, Alberta. We =
are
busy rebuilding the old factories which we hope to have running one day as a
working museum (if the clay Gods are willing that is). We have been granted
historical status by both the Provincial and Federal Governments. If you =
happen
to be in the area during the summer months stop by and take a tour, wander
through our Gift Shop and the Bert Hargrave Gallery which is run by the =
local
potters guild.

Now for the most exciting news of all. We are offering a new residency =
program.
Our program is called Medalta: International Artists in Residence. If you =
are
interested please contact our Chairperson, Dan Taylor at =
dataylor=40memlane.com ,
the registration deadline is April 1, 1999. Dan will be more than happy to
answer all your questions and get you signed up, but please don't delay as =
we
only have room for a limited number of people.

If you have any questions or comments about the website please feel free to
contact me at sharsept=40telusplanet.net . I have been appointed to =
maintain the
site and have given myself the title Web Bitch (just can't handle being =
called a
master).

Happy potting and hope to meet you when you come to =22the Hat=22.
