Uptown Clay Holiday Open House & Artisan Sale
Friday December 2nd from 5:00-9:00 PM
&
Saturday, December 3rd from 12:00-6:00 PM
People are becoming more focused on supporting locally grown and made products. Buying art, crafts and food directly from the maker or grower, is becoming more and more popular. The art and craft of pottery evokes a simpler time and by incorporating it into daily life, pottery allows people to reconnect to the value and beauty of everyday objects.
Fourteen outstanding neighborhood potters and ceramic artists are having their annual Holiday Sale at their neighborhood pottery gallery and studio, Uptown Clay. These artists support KFNA’s Empty Bowls work by hosting an annual pottery throwdown at their studio and by firing the finished bowls for our paint-a-bowl events.  The artists invite you can stop by Friday December 2th from 5:00-9:00 PM and Saturday, December 3rd from 12:00-6:00 PM at the studio on 2845 Harriet Avenue They will be serving wine and lite snacks and would love to see you. Check their website www.Uptownclay.com or Facebook Page https://www.facebook.com/Uptownclay/ for details.
