UNL CLAY CLUB'S POTTERY SALE IS DECEMBER 8-9, 2006 The Winter Ceramics Sale features ceramics work from current UNL graduate, undergraduate and post-baccalaureate students. A wide range of functional pottery, vessels and small sculpture will be available for purchase. A special raffle includes works from UNL faculty members Gail Kendall and Pete Pinnell. Seventy percent of the profits from the sale are given back to the individual artists. The remaining 30 percent of the profits are given to Clay Club to sponsor their visiting artists program to invite world-renown ceramic artists and lecturers to visit UNL. While here, visiting artists typically spend three days giving demonstrations, slide lectures, and individual and group critiques. Many of these events are open to the public. "I hope to see many new faces at our sale this year," said graduate student Rhonda Willers, and a member of the UNL Clay Club. "We will have at least five new talented artists featured at this year's sale in addition to our usual staple of artists. There will definitely be a wide variety of work-we're sure to appeal to many people's preferences." For more information, call the Department of Art and Art History at (402) 472-5522. |
