Pottery24: a Pottery Marathon Fundraiser with a Purpose


PictureThink you and your team (work, church, household) can raise $1,000 in one month to honour Labour Day and to support JustWork’s mission of social employment?


       Do it and JustPotters will give your team a free pottery workshop.

How about $2,000 in one month?


        Do that and we will throw in dinner by JustCatering.

Take the challenge. Help us continue our mission.

Pottery24 is the annual pottery marathon & fundraiser of JustPotters, a Vancouver-based pottery studio set up to do good on two fronts:

      1) make beautiful pottery for purchase
      2) provide employment for people who need it most

Through
funds raised at Pottery-24, JustPotters will continue offering
employment to individuals who face barriers to work. Your donations will
supplement our pottery revenues,
and this supplement is essential for our continued success – success
at providing income, community, and dignity for our employees and
amazing pottery for our customers!

Event Details

At 5pm on September
26th, 2014 potters from our studio will begin a 24-hour pottery
marathon. Supported and motivated by your pledges and donations, they
will be work making pottery in shifts for a full 24 hours.

  • WHEN: Friday to Saturday, September 26-27th
  • WHERE: 1803 East 1st Avenue, Vancouver
  • OPEN HOUSE: Saturday, 10am to 5pm

This year we’re also excited to be participating in BC Culture Days. Come on by during our Open House hours on Saturday between 10am and 5pm to:
