ENDS TODAY!

“Here we are… The raffle ends in 12 hours (midnight Pacific time) and we’re sitting at $49,643. I can’t believe it….We’re gonna hit $50k!!! Never in my wildest dreams did I imagine these posts would encourage 50 thousand dollars in donations. Thank you for blowing my mind and making me believe that humanity actually may have a shot at fixing this shit.
If you haven’t donated yet, or you’re still on the fence, this last set of incentives is GUARANTEED to knock you right off of it! So lets see how high this number can go!! Remember…all you have to do to enter the raffle, is donate to any charity supporting the Black Lives Matter movement and send your receipt to [email protected]. All NEW entries must have receipts with today’s date of 6/6. Anything that had already been submitted before today is still eligible to win any of the prizes.”

NCECA‘s first monthly eBay Cup Exhibition and Sale opens for bidding tomorrow, Thursday May 21st at 4pm MDT* and closes on May 31st. This inaugural auction is a wonderful opportunity to add to your cup collection or purchase beautiful gifts for those you care about while advancing the field of contemporary ceramic art and learning. Proceeds benefit NCECA’s Fund for Artistic Development which supports creative research and diversity fellowships, international residencies, and student scholarships. Visit this link on and after May 21st to see and bid on cups that are available for purchase at auction. If you are interested in bidding but not yet a user of the eBay platform, you may wish to review this brief instructional video and this page on the auction site.

Each year, NCECA provides more than $50,000 in direct support to artists and students. Beginning tomorrow, new cups will be featured each month on NCECA’s website and NCECA’s eBay Seller Page. Cup makers will retain possession of their works until a winning bid is determined at the close of each month’s auction. NCECA provides makers with a prepaid shipping label to transport the cup to its new owner.
