Celebrate Clay & Glass
Month-long holiday shopping event benefiting studio artists and non-profits
With the holiday season fast approaching, members of the Association of Clay and Glass Artists of California (ACGA) have pooled resources, talents and contacts to create an online holiday shopping event. More than 70 artists working in clay and glass will present shipping-ready, handmade gifts made in their independent studios that are destined to become family heirlooms. From distinctive mugs to fantastical sculptural forms, budget conscious to extravagant price points, there will be something here for everyone on your list. Including you!
With virtually all live craft events curtailed due to Covid 19, Celebrate Clay & Glass will be an invaluable and proactive opportunity for the artists as they practice their craft, support their families, and participate in their local economies. Additionally, many participants will earmark a portion of their sales to benefit chosen non-profits. Planned recipients include nationally recognized organizations including CERF+, NAACP Legal Defense Fund, Doctors Without Borders, Sierra Club, and Black Lives Matter as well as numerous local food banks, land trusts, dignity charities, and more. In total, this event will be a big win for shoppers, artists and worthy causes.
Celebrate Clay & Glass runs live, 24/7, from December 1-31, 2020 at www.acga.net Artists will be represented by a selection of images and have links to their individual online stores and venues. Handmade items are inherently limited in number.
Don’t see the perfect gift? Contact your favorite artist and inquire about custom orders – many are willing and ready to assist you in the creation of the object you’ve imagined. Visit the site early and often for the best selection and to guarantee delivery by the holiday.
Founded in 1945, ACGA is the nation’s largest non-profit membership organization dedicated to the advancement of ceramic and glass arts. Juried by their peers, the 500+ member artists are widely acclaimed, and many are internationally recognized.
