Dawn Fenwick
Finances
"I am the one who tracks the Weekly Sales, messes up the Month End payouts for Artists, and cusses like a sailor when I work on the three grants that keep CDAC afloat. In my spare time, I muck about in the pottery studio, hang out in the gift shop, and sling perogies. "
Colleen Routley
Pottery Instructor & Studio Supervisor
Colleen is one of the go-to persons in the pottery studio. She does classes, maintenance and cares for the firing of the kilns. Colleen is super handy, and a joy to have in the organization.
