2014-11-15 - Saturday - Clayworks fundraiser

Saturday was the annual Clayworks fundraiser.  An Evening of Earth & Fire was hosted for the second year by Elder Gallery thanks to Larry Elder's generosity.

It was a fine night with lots of people in attendance.  There was a lot of beautiful donated artwork in the silent auction and it sold well.  Thanks to all the generous donations and bidding Clayworks will be funded another year.

Afterwards several of us went to Akahana Asian Bistro for a late supper.

A good night.

May 18 - Emily Reason reception

Preceding the Saturday workshop, there was a reception at Clayworks for artist Emily Reason on Friday evening.  Attendance was light, but lively.  Everyone got to meet Emily and have a snack and some libations.  After the reception a group of us went Akahana Asian Bistro and had a wonderful meal and lots of fun.

The reception.

Emily, Julie, and Dave.

Good food.
