Note: For the longest time, I thought the Carol Duvall Polymer
Clay Guild was a myth or a rumor. I finally tracked down Sharon David,
president of the mysterious Guild, and asked her to tell us how Carol
came to have a Guild all her own.
><><><><><><><><><><><><><><
While at the Muse
Conference I had been
asked so many times which Guild was I from, that I started saying ” The
Carol Duvall
Guild.” While talking to a girl named Mags we decided that would be our
answer
to the question. This was in the form of a joke that took on a life of
its own.
People that had no Guilds near them and felt they had been educated by
Carol’s
shows asked to join (still in jest). Then Georgia Sargeant, Editor of
The
Polyinformer (NPCG newsletter) joined in and said "Why not!" I said
yes!
I have kept a list of
Carol's up coming shows for my personal use and I could e-mail the
information. Georgia
said,
“Then make it a Virtual Guild," and she would put it into the
Polyinformer.
Barbara McGuire, Emi Fukushima, Maureen Carlson, and other artists told
Carol she
had a Guild. She was pleased.
So Mags wrote up the
info and sent it to Georgia
and we
invited Clayers to join. To this date there have been over 400 members
and many
regional polymer clay Guilds post the show listings on the web. I post
the show listings to some PC
Groups mostly because there are so many bells and whistles on the
e-mails and
so many were being bounced, that this seemed to be an alternative.
Here is an updated

add them to the list in (parenthesis).
