The Worcester Art Museum will hold an exhibition of 
pottery and porcelain by American makers, to open Jan. 31st 
and close April 30th. It is hoped that this exhibition will 
show the best that has been done in the United States in 
these lines.

The Chicago Ceramic Art Association had a holiday sale 
at the Palmer House, which proved a splendid financial suc- 
cess. The public appreciated the fact that this was a sale and 
not an exhibit, and bought freely. The club are now planning 
a study course, in which clay is to prove a prominent feature. 
Study will begin sometime about Feb. 1st. 
STUDIO NOTES 
Miss N. Hatch, the most prominent firer in Chicago, is 
spending January in New York City. The crowning beauty 
of most of the best works done in ceramics in Chicago is 
due to Miss Hatch, who has made firing a study for many 
years. 
The artists, mostly ceramists, of the Auditorium building, 
are planning for a large reception to be held afternoon and 
evening of Jan. 21. The studios are all to be thrown open, 
both on the 10th and nth floors, and the public will be most 
cordially welcomed to all the studios. There are about 25 
artists, all told, that occupy studios on the two floors, and live 
in a little world all by themselves. 
Miss Frances MacArthur who has been studying in New 
York with Mr. Fry, Miss Mason and Mrs. Leonard, will give a 
reception at her studio in Perth, Ontario, Canada, show- 
ing to her friends the wqrk she accomplished under her in- 
structors.
