2026 FUSION CONFERENCE: Conversations in Clay
 
The 2026 FUSION Conference takes place May 23–24 at the Art Gallery of Burlington, bringing together three powerhouse voices in contemporary clay: Tony Clennell, Bruce Cochrane, and Kiefer Floreal from The Great Canadian Pottery Throwdown. This is a rare opportunity to learn directly from three artists shaping the field today and to connect with peers from across the province.
 
New this year, and included in the price of the conference, are inspiring afternoon breakout sessions led by experts on gallery representation, mentorship pathways, photographing your work, branding and marketing, plus behind-the-scenes tours of the AGB collections. 
 
Round out the weekend with vendors, a Mug and Bowl Sale supporting FUSION scholarships, and an invitation to the opening night of the inaugural Henry Goodman Exhibition for Emerging Artists.
