HART Benefit Saturday, May 20th 9-5pm We’ve teamed up with Homeless Animal Rescue Team of Cincinnati to raise money for their organization. The fundraiser will have a few different parts: 1. Keepsakes: The entire month of May we will donate 10% of the profits from any animal keepsakes purchased. If you have a beloved pet in your life, consider getting their paws imprinted into a beautiful plaque made by our very own Laurie Wright! For more information or examples, check out our sample wall in the Pottery Painting Studio or contact Laurie! 2. Open Wheel: The profits from our Family Open Wheel class on May 20th will be donated to HART. We’re hoping to fill that class, so if you know of any friends or family who’ve always wanted to try the wheel but haven’t done so yet, this is their chance! Register here. 3. Adoption Event: HART will be bringing adoptable dogs to QCC from 12-3pm! This is great exposure for the pups and hopefully we can get some animals into their forever homes! 4. Pottery Painting Studio: 15% of all pieces painted in our Pottery Painting Studio will go directly to HART. This is an amazing activity to do with kids or a group of friends. Bring some wine or snacks and enjoy a relaxing day painting pottery! 5. Pottery Sale: For all gallery sales this day, QCC will donate 10% to HART. Just like the Holiday Bazaar, artists will still receive 80% of their sales. We’re hoping to focus on pieces animal related like food/water bowls, bird houses, pet tags, or pieces with animal designs on...
