John Borrowman, Canmore
John was a full-time potter from 1974 through to 1997, when he began a hiatus from the studio in order to develop The Avens Gallery in Canmore, Alberta. More than a decade later, the gallery is successfully representing dozens of local and regional artists, and John is getting some time back in the pottery studio. His original training with clay took place in Ontario where he apprenticed at Wilton Pottery and studied under Robin Hopper at Georgian College. John relocated in 1975 to Alberta where he shared workspace with Tony Bloom at Stonecrop Studios for many years. He opened Notch Hill Pottery in 1980 in the interior of British Columbia, which he & wife Lynn operated for five years prior to returning to Canmore, Alberta. In 1991 John established a studio called of Cabbages & Kings which he now shares with his daughter Katie who is working as a full-time studio potter.
