Canada Invades Korea.
Once again my
friend Unha Yi Hill is taking a group to Korea for an amazing clay
experience. Last night Unha presented a
Korean dinner to those that are going this year. Some live far away and
unfortunately were unable to attend. I stopped counting the number of courses
when it reached 5. It was a feast for Kings and Queens. Our hostess had been
preparing in the kitchen for two days and at the dinner she was able to sit
back and relax while her very classy daughter Adrianna and her boyfriend Tyler
were our servers. Donn Zver who runs a pottery and restaurant toasted the young
couple for their excellent service and attention to detail.
Unha
presented a jam packed itinerary of making pots with the Korean masters, and many
visits to museums and pottery festivals. Pots made by the group will be fired
in the 5 chambered wood kiln at the Icheon Pottery Festival.
Chris Snedden
President of Fusion is returning again with Unha, Donn Zver who started Fusion
(Ontario Potters Association) some 45 years ago is going and Beryl Budnark a
very active Hamilton Potters Association member are also going. What a great
group to travel with!! I contacted the Soju Distillers of Korea to tell them to
start a second shift in the distillery in anticipation of Beryl arriving. Get a
few drinks in that woman with her crazy shoes and Korea may never recover.
