The exhibition is not only an opportunity to view a wide range of unique ceramic vessels and sculptures, but it also provides a chance to purchase a one-of-a-kind artwork.

The McGroarty student artwork will also be available for purchase, and funds raised will be used to support the McGroarty Ceramics Department.
