Scenes from a smash
Dec. 24th, 2015 06:52 amHoliday Market's annual Charity Pottery Auction with Percussive Interludes
(aka Pottery Smash) happened yesterday morning before opening. More than 20 vendors donated ware, lots of pottery, but also glass, mosaic, t-shirts, needle felt, canned albacore tuna, cameos and catnip mice. Turnout was a little smaller than previous years, but we still raised nearly $3000 for the Kareng Fund, our emergency relief fund for distressed crafters. We also broke a lot of bad pottery, shards of which were carted away to make mosaics at a birthing center. Here's some scenes from a smash.




As one of the three auctioneers, I was too busy to get any shots of the event itself, but Tara brought a proper camera, and promises me pictures; I'll post them when I receive them.
