Minimum bid for Silent Auction piece_________________________________________ ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Successful empty Bowls in Albuquerque...report from Elaine Biery and Shantel
Riley
No we thank you Elaine and Shantel for your hard work! We invite you to an event to benefit Project Share, which is an organization
that has been feeding the homeless since 1983. Over 100 potters and some of
Albuquerque's finest restaurants have donated bowls and soup for this event.
PROJECT SHARE EMPTY BOWLS, 2006
In order to produce the large quantity of bowls needed for this years event, we would also like potters to consider hosting a bowl throwing party at their own studios. Remember the old saying, Many hands make light work? That is the idea behind throwing parties. You would invite several people to your studio to produce bowls. The number of people would depend on the amount of space you have. Some people could be throwing bowls on a wheel while others would be hand building. Call Brant at NM Clay (881-2350) to supply clay. You may wish to trim and decorate the bowls yourself or have each person take their bowls home to trim and decorate. To support our efforts in making bowls for this event, Project Share can cater food and drinks at your scheduled bowl party. If you would be willing to host such an event, please call . Remember, when making and donating bowls, all are welcome! Bring your seconds, your glaze experiments, your extras from dinnerware orders. Cups and mugs are also appreciated. If you make raku or pit fired pieces, please consider donating them as well. The buyers can be served soup in plastic bowls and all our our bowls will find good homes. We also need special pieces for the silent auction. Bring your finished bowls any time to NM Clay. Please be sure to fill out the donation form on the back of this letter when you turn in your bowls. Tape business cards to the inside or bottom of all your bowls. The buyers want to know who made their bowl. With all your generosity and hard work, we will once again have a successful event. --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Please hand in this slip with your bowls so that we can keep track of your generosity!
