Leonhard Epp (1932-2018) was a ceramicist who spent most of his career in Falkland, B.C., with his wife, artist Ann Kipling. He was born near Heidelberg, Germany, and took a stonework certification before arriving in Canada in 1951. He attended the Vancouver School of Art (now Emily Carr University of Art and Design) from 1956 to 1960 and later taught sculpture and ceramics there, from 1962 to 1972. Leonhard and Ann moved to Falkland in 1973, where he remained until his death. He exhibited at the Vernon, Kelowna, and Kamloops Art Galleries. His last exhibition before his death was in 2008 at the Vernon Art Gallery.
