Saturday, May 11th, 2019
10:00 AM to 4:00 PM

Pacific Rim Potters Spring Sale scheduled for May 9, has been cancelled due to possible active community spread of Covid-19 and the uncertainty regarding timelines of containment and social distancing measures. This decision was taken in consideration of the logistics of the venue, and concern for the well being of our loyal customers.

We are now looking ahead to our autumn event and are delighted that our two spring show guests Heather Vale and Derek Kasper will be able to join us then. 

Hope to see you November 7, 2020, (same place, same time).  Keep safe everyone!

Nine south Vancouver Island ceramic artists invite you to attend their exhibition of original ceramic art and pottery.  We love clay and we love to celebrate the hand-made!

This spring the show will include two guest artists. The work of Derek Kasper will be familiar to regular visitors to Pacific Rim Potters, as he has exhibited with the group in the past. Heather Vale, exhibiting with us for the first time, will bring her own unique designs to the mix.

These two will join group regulars Cindy Gibson, Darrel Hancock, Nora Lewin, Peggy Elmes, Linda Vigliotti, Tony Mochizuki and Ester Galac to put together a classy and eclectic show of functional and sculptural pottery sure to suit every taste and budget.

Each of the potters has developed an individual style, and perfected their own designs for a wide array of pieces, ranging from eggcups to sculpture. Colourful garden art rubs shoulders with unique pottery for the kitchen, elegant Ikebana vases, dramatic display pieces and the humble coffee mug.

The sale is always held on the Saturday before Mothers' Day, making it a great place to find that perfect gift for Mum, something special for yourself, your garden or your backyard birds. It's also a great place to find inspiration for your next pottery class!

The Pacific Rim Potters was formed 34 years ago with an initial ‘spring show and sale’ designed to exhibit the work of professional local artists; a fall show was added several years later. Despite the longevity of the show, membership has evolved and cthere is always something new to see.

Pacific Rim Potters' events are free, in a wheelchair accessible venue, with complimentary refreshments, free parking and door prizes by raffle. Shoppers, browsers, curious or serious, friends old and new are all welcome. Artists will be in attendance. 10 am to 4 pm.
