Several LBCC staff and students won awards at the Oregon Potter’s Association 31st Annual Ceramic Showcase held in Portland April 26-28.  This event is the nation's largest pottery show and sale.

First place purchase award went to Anthony Gordon, LBCC Benton Center ceramics instructional assistant, for his horse sculpture "Breaking Free."

Best new Oregon Potters Association member award went to LBCC ceramics student Annclaire Greig.

Oregon Potters Association members were invited to submit two wall tile pieces into a juried show to be displayed in Japan for the month of October.

The tiles will be displayed along with wall tiles made by potters in the Hokkaido Potters Society, Japan.

Tiles chosen for the Hokkaido exhibit were by Leslie Green and Javier Cervantes. Leslie is a Tile and Raku ceramics instructor at the Benton Center. Javier is director of Diversity and Community Engagement at the Albany campus.
