Volunteer at the event
Any artist contributing a Collectors Club bowl, Auction or Raffle piece or at least 10 event bowls will receive free entry to the event. All volunteers working the event will receive a free t-shirt.
Artisan Auction/Raffle Bowls
These are larger, professional pieces for the on-line Auction or Raffle. Bowls will be juried only to determine which area, Auction or Raffle, they will be featured in. BOTH areas are equally important and greatly appreciated.
Limited Edition Bowls
These are beautifully crafted, typically smaller than the large Artisan bowls that are made available for purchase during the event and priced by a group of knowledgeable artists.
Event Bowls
Event bowls, (smaller soup-sized), the heart of our event, are given to each paid attendee to thank them for their support and as a reminder that many are food insecure in our community.
Significant Dates to Remember
ALL finished Auction/Raffle bowls are due no later than March 19th.
Event bowls and Limited Edition bowls due April 22nd
