The Kootenay School of Art has produced excellent clay sculptors, ceramic artists and potters since the program’s inception in 1990. They’ve travelled across the globe to exhibit, teach, and demonstrate their artistry. They’ve won awards at international juried exhibitions. They’ve expanded the possibilities for how clay can serve families and communities. They’ve bridged the cerebral domain of museums and conceptual clay art with the simple, practical level of everyday service and use. This is why three accomplished clay instructors at KSA, Pamela Nagley Stevenson, David Lawson and Garry Graham, held no reservations about sharing their group show at BC’s most respected clay art gallery, the Gallery of BC Ceramics, on Granville Island, this September, with nine select successful graduates.
