85 artists from Ontario and La Belle Province will be swooping down on Toronto next week for the sixth annual Pottery and Glass Sale. Taking place in the atrium of the Mother Corp (i.e., CBC, 250 Front West), handmade pottery, sculpture and fused and blown glass will all be up for grabs. And just think — you can get a nice plate and support starving potters while you’re at it — the proceeds support the non-profit Fusion Ontario Clay and Glass Association. October 16-19, Wednesday noon to 9, Thursday and Friday 9 am to 9 pm, Saturday 9 am to 5 pm. Admission is free. 416-438-8946.
