Susan Ellenton

Susan’s work brings together her love of nature, interest in technical innovation, and exploration of body-centred knowing. Although better known as a musician and naturalist, Susan has been creating in silver since 1973, when she took her first job assisting a hippie silversmith in Auckland NZ.  In recent years she has been particularly focused on sintering techniques and is the first Canadian to achieve international accreditation in this field throughout the Metal Clay Masters Registry.

Monthly giving enables you to protect what you love. For 25 years, Raincoast has been furthering biodiversity conservation in BC. We have big plans and with your help we will: 

• End commercial trophy hunting of large carnivores in the Great Bear Rainforest.
• Acquire land in order to protect threatened Coastal Douglas-fir ecosystems.
• Support the recovery of endangered Southern Resident killer whales by restoring Chinook salmon habitat, and so much more.

Protecting biodiversity is the most important gift we can give the next generation. Join us as a Raincoaster today!
