Students and faculty of the Western New Mexico University clay department will hold their 15th Annual Friends of Clay Pottery Sale from 9 a.m. to 3 p.m. on Saturday, October 10! Join us at the Lion’s Club Building on 8th and Bullard, at the north end of Makers Market.
The sale will feature a wide selection of pottery and clay artworks donated by current and former WNMU clay students, faculty, and professional potters. All proceeds from the sale will benefit the WNMU Ceramics program.
Sponsored by “Friends of Clay,” the annual pottery sales have grown in size each year since 2005 and have been an astounding success. Funds raised by the group have enhanced and promoted ceramics in the WNMU clay program through the offering of lectures, workshops, trips, and scholarships, as well as assisting in the purchase of equipment and supplies for the University Clay Studio.
The wide variety of clay works offered have become a main attraction of this annual sale, from beginning student pots to gallery-quality pieces, all at reasonable prices. Also included are works by nationally-renowned ceramic artists, donated by private collectors.
The sale is a unique opportunity to support the arts, and there will be something for everyone–parents and kids, artists and collectors, homemakers, gardeners, and gift-givers!
