Clayfest
The Annual Seconds Sale!
Baltimore Clayworks hosts a benefit sale of the best ceramics on the East Coast. Are you a savvy shopper? Bargainista? Art enthusiast? If so, this event is for YOU! Throughout the year, Baltimore Clayworks collects ceramic pieces that are irregular, out-dated, or perfectly fine and just need a good home. The Annual Seconds Sale features pottery, garden sculpture, handmade tile, and vessels from artists across the country. All proceeds benefit artistic and collaborative programming at Baltimore Clayworks.
Friday, June 3, 6:00-9:00PM
Seconds Sale Preview Party! Enjoy hors d’oeuvres, desserts and wine while you shop amongst shelves upon shelves of beautiful ceramics made by local artists. You’ll have first pick from hundreds of handmade pottery, sculpture, and ceramic objects before it opens up to the public on Saturday. This year Baltimore Clayworks is adding some excitement to the Preview Party by giving guests the first opportunity to purchase wood fired art work from our New Noborigama Fundraiser. These pieces were donated by established artists and fired during the last firing of the current wood kiln. All proceeds will benefit the construction of a new kiln.
Ticket price: $20 member, $25 non-member
