Based in Asheville NC, the Blue Ridge Polymer Clay Guild was formed in April 1999. We're an enthusiastic group of polymer clay users and addicts, from beginners to hobbyists to professionals.

We meet the second Saturday of each month from 12pm till 4pm at the Avery Creek Community Center in south Asheville. The address of our meeting hall is: 899 Glen Bridge Road SE, Arden, NC 28704.

In Memory

Mary Lee Forsythe

Today we grieve the passing of our beloved member Mary Lee. We extend our condolences to her family and friends. We mourn together for the loss of our dear friend and miss her bright smile, kind words, and generous heart. If the workings of an artists hands are a reflection of the spirit within, then we should feel so honored that we were able to witness a truly joyous, gentle soul through the beautiful creations that she made and shared with us. We always knew her work was fit for the angels. - BRPCG 27Jan10

"Mary Lee, I know wherever you are, you are reading this. There's no way a little thing like death could stop you. There's just too much artistic talent to be wasted. We've always enjoyed your positive approach to everything, your wonderful sense of humor, and just the great bundle of energy that was you. There's no measurement for the number of ways you've enriched our lives, and certainly not a prayer of ever conveying how much you will be missed. You can be assured that your memory will always live on in our guild. I doubt if we'll be able to do a single thing without it reminding us of you. We will treasure our memories of you forever." -Bridget, Guild Member

2010 Clay Days - April 10 and Oct 9
9am till 5pm

Clay Days are now free days for paid members and first-time visitors. All others will need to pay a $3 charge (we gotta pay rent you know?) Come for the morning or the afternoon, or stay and clay all day long, whether you're a member or not. Bring your clay and tools and any related materials. The oven will be running all day for your creating pleasure.

This is a perfect opportunity to:
• work on a project you haven't had time for
• brainstorm ideas for a project you're stuck on
• figure out how to use that interesting stuff you bought to use with clay but haven't tried yet
• share a technique you've been experimenting with
• learn from someone else's demonstration
• and just mingle and chat with claying friends!
See you there!
