The new ClearWater Ceramics Center will feature a retail space, studios for local artists, a large, open classroom space for pottery wheels and work tables, as well as a glazing room, mixing room, and kiln room. The public is invited to attend a ribbon cutting ceremony and preview the new facility. At the event there will be opportunities to share opinions and ideas for future ceramics classes and programs.

When: Thursday, October 26, 2022 at 2 p.m.

As a community ceramics center, the new facility includes a centrally located open work space to accommodate classes and allow artists and residents to access equipment. At the event, the city will have community input surveys available for guests to complete and share their requests and vision for future ceramics classes and programs. The survey will also be available online after the event.
