Lincoln, Neb. - The University of Nebraska–Lincoln Clay Club will host their Annual Winter Ceramics Sale and Raffle on Friday, December 10 from 9-6 pm and Saturday, December 11 from 9-5 pm. The sale will be held in Richards Hall on the UNL city campus, across the parking lot from the football stadium, in room 118.
The ceramics sale, as always, will showcase functional pottery, vessels, and sculpture. Both sales represent a broad range of aesthetics, techniques and concepts and the high quality and diversity in these sales ensures something for all tastes.
In addition to the sale, there will be a raffle of a work donated by Oregon-based potter Victoria Christen. Christen was hosted by the Clay Club earlier this year as a visiting artist. Tickets for the raffle can be purchased on Friday or Saturday. The drawing will be held at 5pm on Saturday; need not be present to win.
The UNL Clay Club uses a portion of the proceeds from the sale to fund visiting artist programs, which invite nationally recognized artists and critics to deliver lectures and workshops that are free and open to the public. Proceeds from the sales are also used to facilitate student attendance at annual professional conferences.
Cash or checks accepted (separate checks required for each artist).
