It's that time of the year again!

Our yearly event, Clay for a Cause is coming up on September 18 from 5:30-8 at Benjamin's on Franklin's. This year, we are partnering once again with 13Thirty Cancer Connects.

​

For a suggested donation of $15, you'll get to enjoy food, beer, wine and live music from Walking Buddy!

​

Want to support the event more? For an additional donation, you can select ceramic pieces from over 20 local artists and potters!

​

We hope to see you there!

Our Mission

The IPA supports and promotes ceramic artists while developing resources to mentor and recognize ceramic excellence.  The IPA also endeavors to connect the ceramic arts to activities that benefit the community at large.
