Leslie White, VAC president, had the privilege of presenting the annual Valley Artisans' Coop bursary to Mackenzie High School graduate Erin Rogers at the recent MHS graduation ceremony on June 25.

We, at the Valley Artisans' Coop, wish Erin all the best in her future and hope she will continue to develop her artistic talent.

Mike Milgram has developed an interesting new ceramic technique that he calls shatterfrags.

"This collection extends my exploration of shapes and geometry into another medium. ShatterFrags™ are fragments of glazed pottery. Drop a thin slab of dried clay onto a firm surface. It will shatter into pieces, some of which have interesting shapes. Each selected piece is further fashioned with file and sandpaper to develop its pleasant profile, and a small hole is (very carefully!) drilled, positioned so that the "frag" will eventually hang in a pleasing orientation. Surviving frags are bisqued, glazed on both sides and fired (sometimes twice). After stringing, the process is complete."
