  • Thank You to our VolunteersWe make a living by what we get, we make a life by what we

    give - Winston ChurchillTo all our Volunteers who work so tirelessly, we extend our

    gratitude for your efforts, your dedication and commitment to the success of the Filberg Festival. Without you it could not be done.

    We would also like to thank our volunteer sponsors Canadian Western Bank - Courtenay Branch and RE/MAX Ocean Pacifi c Realty whose support will assist with looking after our volunteers during the Festival.

    Canadian Western Bank strongly believes in supporting

    and strengthening the communities that our customers and employees call home. We are proud to be involved with the Filberg Society, preserving a gem in our Valley through an iconic annual festival.

    The commitment of volunteers in organizing the Festival is absolutely amazing and once again demonstrates the spirit of our community. Thank you for giving us an opportunity to help!

    Jean-Marc Jaquier- Branch Mgr. - Canadian Western Bank Courtenay

    Volunteering is the ultimate exercise in democracy. You vote in elections but when you volunteer, you vote every day about the kind of community you want to live in. ~Author Unknown

    At RE/MAX Ocean Pacifi c Realty we salute the volunteers who make the Filberg Festival a resounding success, year after year. The Comox Valley, host of the Olympic Flame, of BC Seniors Games, recognized as a cultural capital of Canada, is the kind of place you like to call home because of volunteers like you.

    Gandhi said Service to others is the rent you pay for your room here on earth. By volunteering, by believing in all work and no pay, you will make the Filberg Festival a warm memory for the child at the hands on farm, for the visitor seeking directions, for

    the exhibitor connecting to Wi-Fi and for the performer needing a hand.

    You are our ambassadors, not only to residents but to the many visitors from other communities, provinces and countries. Thank you for making the Filberg Festival experience something the entire Comox Valley is proud of, one of our jewels, one of the corners of our hearts we reserve for that special place we call home.

    Featured Guest Artisan

    HUTCHENSGORDON

    Gordon Hutchens studio is nestled in 19 wooded acres in the secluded north end of Denman Island, British Co-lumbia, a 5 minute drive from the ferry landing. For nearly 30 years Gordon has operated his extensive studio here while exhibit-ing across Canada, from Halifax, Mon-treal and Toronto to Vancouver & Vic-toria. He has had over 25 one-man shows and over 70 group exhibitions across Canada and the U.S., with 3 major exhibitions in Japan.

    Gordon has also taught courses and workshops for many colleges and potters guilds. His works and articles have been pub-lished in various ceramics magazines and books. He is the author/host of 4 videos: Beginning Raku, Variations on Raku and two videos on Salt and Soda Firing. Gordon received

    an honours degree in Fine Arts from the University of Illinois majoring in Ceramics (Clay and Glass Blowing). Th ree semesters of

    glaze & clay chem-

    istry combined with working through school as the ce-ramics laboratory assistant gives him an unusually strong technical back-ground. Gordons work is

    well known for the depth and diversity of his glazes and the strength and refi ne-ment of his forms. Gordon formulates

    and blends all his own clay bodies us-ing many diff erent clays from across North America, and bases his porcelain body on a high quality kaolin from England. Local materials are also

    utilized. Clay from his own

    property is high in iron and is used in earthenware bod-ies and in oil spot glazes and metal-lic luster glazes. Seaweed from the beach is used in salt/sagger fi rings. Local wood ash is another major glaze ingredient. Gordon Hutchens

    produces a variety of work from sculp-tured to function-al, and utilizes an extremely broad range of techniques. Works in his show-room include: Raku, Salt Glaze Stoneware, Crys-

    talline Porcelain, Earthenware, Den-

    man Lustre, and Woodfi ring.
