OPEN CERAMICS STUDIO

SEWICKLEY, Pa.-  On Saturday, January 15, 10:00am-12:30pm & 1:30pm-4:00pm  Sweetwater is sponsoring two open studio sessions in support of an "Empty Bowls" fundraising event, hosted by Just Harvest, a local organization that works toward the elimination of hunger and poverty.  Anyone can attend these studio sessions and help in the fight against hunger by producing bowls to donate to Just Harvest's "Empty Bowls" dinner fundraiser which is to take place at Rodef Shalom on March 6th, 2011.   A Sweetwater instructor will be on hand to assist those with no prior experience, and both wheel throwing and hand building options will be available.  Clay is provided by Sweetwater, and all bowls created will be left at the Center to be glazed and donated to Just Harvest.  To find out more about Just Harvest, go to www.justharvest.org. Pre-registration recommended, but not necessary. Walk-ins welcome.
