I spent the last 8 days in Medicine Hat taking a low fire salt and soda firing workshop with Andrew Kellner from Ontario along with 9 others. Wow! What a place. An amazing facility, great artist residence to stay in and interesting history I knew nothing about. Even got a tour of Plainsman Clay. It was hot as hell too!
Katherine Panchuk got ahold of me this week to see if I had anything to donate to her son Liam’s fundraiser for his play that is the only local one accepted to the Fringe this year so I gave her these. I hope they sell!
This weekend I stayed with Lee and did a 2 day songwriting workshop with John. It was held at CASA in Lethbridge. Beautiful facility, 22 people and an interesting lesson on how he approaches song writing. I really enjoyed it.
Saw Ryland Moranz perform with his bluegrass duo at the brewpub last night and went out for supper w Lee, John, Jenny and Charlie tonight. Great fun and a great way to explore another avenue of creativity.
