Clay Day:

Clay Day is held on the third Saturday of the month (see website calendar for dates)  from 10 am to 3 pm,  at Northminster Presbyterian Church: 4324 Clairemont Mesa Blvd SD, CA 92117 .  We work on individual projects, seek help on techniques, sometimes work on guild project like Bottles of Hope or Beads of Courage, and have creative fellowship.  The library is open during this time to browse books and to gain inspiration.  We sometimes have small demos and classes during this time.  Bring your clay and tools.  It is a potluck event so we share our food and drink.  It is a fun time to gain new friendships and new knowledge.  Stop by for a little bit or stay all day.
