*** EMERGENCY CLOSING ***

Please spread the word that the store will be closed Saturday, May 16th. This was an oversight on my part, but I forgot all about having to be in Toronto this Saturday. I’m sorry for the short notice and apologize in advance to anyone that visits the store this Saturday only to find the doors locked.

NCECA 2026 is a wrap. A wonderful first convention for our store. Saw many friends, met new friends and was able to thank people for their help over the years in person. Special thanks to Kiwi Underglaze for welcoming our store with open arms. https://www.instagram.com/reel/DWe1XjXEtnU/?igsh=MWNjaW1vNW9zMTQ4Ng==

*** NCECA 2026 ***

Everyone, this year Capital Pottery and Capital Pottery Studios will be attending NCECA in Detroit on March 25-28. This will mean the store will be closed during the week of the convention. I’ve updated the Google business account so anyone searching online for the store will see we are closed on those dates. Please spread the word.

*** HAPPY ANNIVERSARY ***

Eleven years ago we took ownership of the store and have had a blast serving the Ottawa Pottery Community. One year ago we established our business relationship with the wonderful people at Kiwi Underglaze in New Zealand. In celebration of these two anniversaries we will be giving anyone buying Kiwi Underglaze in the store a 20% discount for the rest of February.

Thank you for all your support.

*** KIWI UNDERGLAZE RAFFLE ***

Thank you to everyone that participated in the Kiwi Underglaze Raffle this Christmas Season. Slightly after 4:00PM on Sunday we had a little boy named Oliver reach into our bowl of tickets and pull out a winning ticket. The winner was Dawn Carson who informed us she had several slabs of clay rolled out to make mugs and now her decorating decisions got more complicated. Dawn won all 50 colors in the Kiwi Underglaze line. Thanks to everyone that entered and the Ottawa Guild of Potters for allowing us to draw at their Christmas Sales Event. www.downunderglazes.ca
