Hand in Hand, Clay Art Center’s annual fundraiser and celebration of ceramics and community, is approaching! This event highlights our impactful community work and plays a crucial role in supporting our scholarships, our Artist in Residence Program, and our Mission. 

Mark your calendars! The event will take place at Clay Art Center on Saturday, October 19th, from 4:00 pm - 6:00 pm, featuring both in-person and online access to the auction. Our online auction platform allows audiences to bid from anywhere in the country. 

 Proceeds from the auction directly support:

·      Our 25+ year strong Artists-in-Residence Program
·      Community Arts Programs
·      Scholarships
·      Ongoing operations at Clay Art Center

This year, we are celebrating several artists in our Artist Program who have called Clay Art Center their creative home for 25 years or more. These artists have not only individually developed their significant creative talents in our Artist Program, but have contributed to the growth and community of Clay Art Center as a whole through their work as volunteers, instructors, and clay enthusiasts. Clay Art Center honors:

Kazuko Lee,
Denis Licul,
Deb Mawhinney,
Gloria Nixon-Crouch,
and Marilyn Richeda.

Tickets are on sale now, with auction bidding opening the week before the event.
We hope you will join us and come together to ignite a passion for clay!
