SFCC’s Dog Sale, May 7th at 9:30 am in the Ceramics room at the Art Building.
The Dog Sale is an event here at SFCC in which all of the unclaimed and donated pieces from our ceramics class are collected and sold once a year.
“The ones that don’t work out well are the dogs,” said Mardis Nenno, a Fine Arts instructor and the Composer of the Dogs Sale. “People make it but don’t glaze or don’t like them will donate their work”
These “dogs” end up making good presents, or knick-knacks for the office and the money from the sale goes back toward the class.
“It’s really great,” Lillian Nielson, a ceramics student at SFCC said. “She does it all for the school, the profits go towards some of the little stuff the school won’t buy”
All pieces are low-priced too, so it works well for college students. Also, since the sale is right before Mother’s Day, you can grab something for mom while you are there.
“Prices usually range from about 25 cents to five dollars,” Mardis Nenno said, “Also my teaching demos are for sale.”
“It’s a really cool show and,since it doesn’t break the bank, I can buy a whole bunch of new artwork,” said Shaquille Worthy, a Student at SFCC. “I love art work and since its local art I feel like that’s even better. It’s a win,win.”
Get there quick because the art sells fast. People start lining up about 30-45 minutes before the sale to get first picks.
