Festival of Lights – Pocatello

We are inviting our community to help us throw or hand build as many bowls for the Empty Bowls fundraiser as possible. We are providing free clay, and free instruction that day for anyone who will donate their bowl to the Food Bank. This is a great opportunity to try to work with clay for free and contribute to an amazing cause. Later on, we will offer discounts for painting of these bowls.
Our event will run all day long. Our studio will transform into a clay studio for the day.
Painting for the Empty Bowls Fundraiser will also be possible, if our customers do not want to get dirty. We will offer a $2 discount for each painted and donated bowl.
