Winter Exhibition 2025

Winter is the perfect season to share the joy of handmade ceramics with those you love! This year, we’ll have over 1,000 new pots, sculptures, and pieces of jewelry available just in time for gift-giving. Discover local artists alongside creators from across the country, representing a rich diversity of cultures, backgrounds, and perspectives. By shopping local and supporting our nonprofit, your purchase makes a meaningful impact, helping sustain artists and keep our programs thriving. Come explore and find the pieces that speak to you!
