CUP SALE
Artist: Snipes
Each year there is an impressive collection of cups donated by hundreds of artists, and people line up at the door for a chance to choose from their work. The cups range from those created for this special occasion by well-known artists—which can become true collectors’ pieces—to beautifully crafted work by professional potters, and always includes some very unique pieces by students who are officially making their “first sale” to help with the cause.

I enjoy the variety of Keynote speakers! The connections they make between ceramics and their fields/professions are beneficial for all. David Suzuki was FANTASTIC!
