Horst Wolf interviewed Brian Scott at Brian Scott Gallery. Brian talked about the history of the gallery and the restaurants. Signatures Gallery now fills half the walls of the gallery with the work of internationally known artists and Brian Scott Gallery fills the other half with local artists' work (a plan that keeps both galleries viable in our current economy).

Maryjane Carlson and the Mud Slingers pottery group held a Raku firing on the lawn at Manley Art Center and Gallery. Here Maryjane is looking inside the kiln through a small hole to see if the pieces are ready. A temperature probe has reached the appropriate temperature, but Maryjane knows from experience that the pieces are not yet ready. They don't look right.
When they were ready and the kiln cover was removed the pieces glowed from the heat.
Moments later the glow was gone and the pieces were picked up with tongs
and placed in a barrel of coals and burning straw.
