Clay to Table Online Sale and Fundraiser

Clay to Table begins October 4 at noon Eastern.

Clay to Table is a forward thinking organization promoting the potter’s art and sharing our excitement to an ever growing online pottery marketplace. Our online event includes a diverse group of potters from across the United States and Canada, each bringing their unique talents to the table.

Participating Artists: Liana Agnew, Bekah Bliss, Ashley Campbell, Kyle Carpenter, Beth Harden, Peter Jadoonath, Shikha Joshi, Courtney Martin, Didem Mert, Yesha Panchal, Stephanie Seguin, Jerilyn Virden, and Tyler Zheng

The biggest aspects of Clay to Table’s collective and sale is creating community and support in our field, and supporting Crafting the Future. Crafting the Future is a collective of artists concerned about the lack of racial and ethnic diversity in the fields of craft, art, and design. “We started this organization because we were tired of feeling helpless. Alone we can not make change, but together we can. Working together and combining our resources, we support the careers of young, underrepresented artists by connecting them to opportunities that will help them thrive.” -CTF

Invited artists and organizers of CTT are each asked to donate a piece to our sweepstakes. The 2024 fundraiser will begin mid summer!
