It’s that time of year again.
The Burnaby Potters’ Guild is hosting its annual Christmas show and sale this Saturday and Sunday.
The event is being put on at Capitol Hill Hall, located at the corner of Hastings Street and Howard Avenue.
The fundraising initiative, now in its 37th year, will feature 15 artists from the club.
“It’s a place for people who are between taking classes and having their own studios, to showcase their stuff,” said coordinator Suzan Marczak.
The money raised will help with the guild’s operating costs, including paying the rent at the Shadbolt Centre and for the materials used on a weekly basis. The group hopes to raise $12,000 in total, similar to what was collected last year.
The show and sale is held twice a year (the other time during the summer), and attracts hundreds of shoppers, according to Marczak.
“There will be a lot of functional ware that’s colourful and eclectic,” she said. “It’s a great time to start your Christmas shopping.”
This year’s theme is “Santa’s Little Helpers.”
