260 Fingers: Opening Night

November 10, 2017 6:00 pm to 9:00 pm. This November, Ottawans will have the opportunity to view the work of Ontario and western Quebec's most accomplished ceramic artists. Twenty-six artists (that's 260 fingers) are coming to Ottawa to exhibit and sell the most innovative and inspiring clay work being produced in the region. From functional to sculptural, from wood-fired to electric-fired, from pieces that are highly decorated to others whose main feature is form, the show features them all. The work is contemporary, risky, and innovative. This exhibit has proven to be unlike any other ceramic show in the province.The 260 Fingers opening night is a traditionally well-attended vernissage, and the exhibition and sale continues on Saturday and Sunday from 10 am to 5 pm. If you want to learn more about ceramic work in general and a chance to ask questions of the artists about their specific practices, the artists will be giving free guided tours each day at 2 pm.. 175 Third AvenueOttawa, ON K1S 2K1..
