The Ceramics Program, Office for the Arts at Harvard will present its annual Holiday Show and Sale December 6-9, 2018 in its state-of-the art facility at 224 Western Avenue, Allston, Massachusetts.
More than 50 artists from the program present an extraordinary selection of ceramic work in this annual exhibition. From functional dinnerware to sculptural masterpieces, this popular exhibition has something for everyone and attracts several thousand visitors each year.
The Show and Sale opens with a festive Opening Reception on Thursday, December 6 from 4:00 – 8:00 pm. The Show and Sale continues Friday, Saturday, and Sunday, December 7, 8, and 9, from 10:00 am – 7:00 pm each day.
Gallery 224, the Ceramics Program’s dedicated exhibition space, will showcase works by the program’s two Artists-In-Residence, Natalia Arbelaez and Colby Charpentier. New this year, wheel throwing and hand building demonstrations by exhibiting artists provide opportunities for the public to view the techniques and skills represented by the work on display throughout the weekend. An entire wall of the gallery will feature a large display of unique mugs made by each exhibiting artist, with all proceeds from these mug sales going to support the studio.
The Ceramics Program Show and Sale runs concurrently with the Harvard Ed Portal’s second annual Allston-Brighton Winter Market next door, making 224 Western Avenue in Allston a perfect holiday shopping destination December 6-9.
