Renu Mathew appearing on episode 6 of the The Great Canadian Pottery Throw Down on March 14École Olds High School art and cosmetology teacher Renu Mathew had a blind and fiery experience during episode 5 of The Great Canadian Pottery Throw Down March 7. But she survived, to go into episode 6 this Thursday night, March 14 on CBC. The throw down challenge was to create pitchers while blindfolded. “This is where my strength lies,” Mathew said as she worked on creating the pieces for the raku firing. Thankfully, when she dunked her pieces into the water to cool, they survived intact.
