North Peace Cultural Centre to present pottery exhibit in October

FORT ST. JOHN, B.C. — The North Peace Cultural Centre will open its latest gallery exhibit later this week. 

The North Peace Potters Guild Group Pottery Exhibit will run from Friday, October 4th, 2024 to the 26th. 

According to the gallery, the exhibit will showcase the variety and skill of many local clay and pottery artists.

Four design ideas will be shown: ‘Flora and Fauna,’ ‘Mythical Creatures,’ ‘Outer Space,’ and ‘On land or sea or foam, show me the way home.’

The Potters Guild, which currently has over 50 members, has had a “prolific impact” on the arts scene in Fort St. John and the Peace River regions.

Lori Phillips of the Potters Guild says the organization is run by volunteers who are passionate about exploring everything related to pottery.

“As always, we are excited to share space with each other at the Gallery, an organization that is a great partner to work with to share our work with the community,” said Phillips.

The Cultural Centre will present two more exhibits before the end of the year, with the Sandy Troudt + Mary Parslow in November and the FSJ Country Quilters in December. 

The gallery, located at 10015 100 Ave, in Fort St. John, is open Tuesday through Saturday from 11 a.m. to 5 p.m.
