July 15 TILE FUNDRAISER UPDATE!  We are at 73% ($1,840) of our goal with six days to go!  Please help put us over the top!

Buy a Tile
​& Give 3 Kids a Free Clay Class!

Help us bring  the gift of clay to kids next school year by buying a tile on new planters being built for District Clay.  Each $30 tile you purchase funds a Community Clay class for three kids.

And if you act before July 21st, you can get a name (yours, a loved one. . . ) and a message inscribed on your tile.  If your tile is a gift, we will also send a personalized PDF certificate to the giftee.  And of course, your message will be immortalized on our new District Clay planters coming in August.  

Watch his short video by Resident Artist Vicki for more about our campaign.

​Contribute by going here to our Community Clay website.  

Our goal is to raise $2,500.  District Clay's Cmmunity Clay Program provides free clay classes on Friday afternoons for underserved kids at THEARC facility in SE DC.  

Your tile purchase is tax deductible.
