We are looking forward to the 2022 Festival!
Our 2022 Festival is scheduled for July 9 & 10. Mark your calendars!
Fine and functional art from over 100 influential clay and glass artists for sale.
Remember, buying art is a great way to support local artists, especially during these challenging times.
Admission is free and there will be food trucks.
There’s plenty of street parking, and valet parking is available at the Art Center for a fee.
Come join us in 2022!

ACGA ARTIST OF THE MONTH
MIMI ABERS
I started working in clay in the early 70’s and added cast glass in 2000 for which I make all my molds from clay and cast them in plaster/silica, then add different sizes of glass to fire them in my kiln from 5-8 days depending on the size. I still work in clay but am showing all glass work.
