First report in from Fusion 2010
Well, they did it, Neil, Marion, Nicole and Josephine. This very small team are to be congratulated for organising the latest NZPotters convention with a hand from the Otago Potters.
Every convention has its own flavour, a something to set it apart from the others  be it the legendary cakes at the Roaring 40s, the sense of fun at Crater Clay or the best band at First Light 007. Fusion had hands on.

Fusion made the most of two opportunities  one was the sister city relationship with Shanghai to invite a master decorator from Jingdezhen, the other the Polytechnic. Home to the School of Art, the only place in New Zealand offering a full time course in ceramics, as well as organising the distance Diploma in Ceramic Art, this was the perfect place for a change of format from the usual conference, with two days of Master Classes being offered beforehand.
