​The Paint, Plant, and Pottery Sale at DSLG was a roaring success. 

This year we pushed hard for donations and you definitely responded. Plants were turning up every day and they were even dropped off during the sale. We had a steady flow of customers and so many plants. Our pottery flew off the shelves and our artists were so happy to meet customers who loved their work.

The final figures aren't in quite yet but the artists and everyone involved are so happy with the number of people who turned up, bought their fab pottery, and made donations to the Developmental Services of Leeds and Grenville.

Being part of the Brockville community is a big part of my identity both as Krista and Krista-the-artist.

Which is why, every year, I donate bowls to the Empty Bowls Fundraiser in Brockville.

All year, Loaves and Fishes provide low-cost eating options to the community. For the fundraiser, Brockville comes together to support. Local chefs provide the soup, local artisans provide the bowls, and local musicians provide the entertainment. It's truly a community effort. Tickets ran at about $25 per head and included lunch and bowl for you to take home. I'm so proud of our community for providing so many bowls to this fab event.

This year, my veteran students jumped in and helped with the production. All their help and support made me truly feel the community spirit.

A special thank you to students who assisted with throwing and glazing support:

• Emily W. 
• Evelyn T.
• Elinor U.  
• Tammy L. 
• Donna H. 
• Iris D.

And a big shout out to Judy C. for donating clay toward the project.

And finally, thank you to the students that attended the Empty Bowls on my behalf.
