On Friday night, April 30th, Earth & Soul Pottery will be hosting a benefit art sale to raise funds for projects and aid in Central America. 30% of proceeds from all Guatemalan products will go to the children of Casa Jackson- includes textile products, sculpture and more. Also, several local potters have contributed mugs to sell to raise money for Haiti aid efforts.
Come out for a good cause, with good people, and beautiful crafts.

Once you have 5 marks on your raffle card, you can drop it off at the business of your choice to enter thier raffle. Each business will be raffling off their own prize, and each person can enter only one business’s raffle- so choose wisely!
This will be a great way to get some of your Christmas Shopping done, or get a special treat for yourself– with none of the guilt!
*Please note that raffle prizes may change without notice, and that each shop is responsible for the handling of its own raffle.
