Every animal needs a home, and a group of local artists has decided to raise money so homeless animals can have a better place to stay while they're waiting for that home.
Pottery for Pets is an ongoing sale of handcrafted pots by local potters to raise awareness and funds for the Natchez-Adams County Humane Society's building fund. Read more...
Clay Community Events
"Aren't all your bowls empty?" This is a common question for anyone who hasn't been to an Empty Bowls event! Here's how it works.
Buy a $25 ticket from any Natchez Clay studio member...or from the studio at the corner of Clifton and Madison. You'd better buy it in advance, because this event is usually a sellout!
Bring your ticket to Natchez Clay on Sunday, February 13 between 11 AM and 1 PM. You get to choose your any bowl from hundreds of beautiful handmade bowls created by local potters. We'll fill it with delicious gumbo. Top that off with cornbread and a beverage, and you have a simple meal while you are donating money to the Natchez Community Stewpot.
We'll have tables set up behind our studio so you can enjoy your gumbo while overlooking the Mighty Mississippi, or we'll bag it up so you can take it to-go. Either way you get to take home your bowl!
Empty Bowls events are held throughout the world, and millions of dollars have been raised to combat hunger. Let your bowl be a reminder that there are hungry people in our own community that need our help.
To purchase tickets, email us or talk to any of our Natchez Clay studio members. Or you can become a sponsor for only $100.
