Mudflat Gala September 9th

By Arthur of Arthur Halvorsen Ceramics

You have heard me talk about the new building for Mudflat before and it is FINALLY time for us to move down the street to the new building! We are so excited! I'm especially thrilled because it'll be the first time since college that I'll have my own studio (I am sharing my studio with 3 other people but we are gonna be great I just know it!) Anyway I wanted to tell you about an exciting opportunity to see the building.

Join us to celebrate the opening of our new building. Ribbon cutting at noon with Somerville Mayor Joseph Curtatone and other dignitaries, live music, pottery demonstrations, and an exhibition of claywork by Mudflat studio artists. Hands-on fun too - Help us decorate a giant clay pot for our new building.
Free, everyone welcome!

So make sure to save the date the Gala is going to be one to remember and if you buy your ticket in advance you get a little bit of a price break! On my blog and on the Facebook fan page for Mudflat we have been posting images of ceramic pieces that have been donated and 100% of the proceeds are going towards paying off the new building. Become a fan of Mudflat on Facebook and play along as we Name That Potter!
