Celebrate Spring Fest with Clay Art Center

Fourth Annual Spring Fest at Clay Art Center

Clay Art Center (CAC) is once again celebrating its annual Spring Fest and Super Second Sale to be held at 40 Beech Street, Port Chester, on Saturday, May 17 from 11 am to 7pm, rain or shine. Admission is free. 



Unique food from local food vendors, live music and hands on clay activities will be fun for the whole family. Artists from all over the region have donated their work, all of which will be for sale at greatly reduced prices for this annual fundraiser. Hundreds of bowls, mugs, cups, handmade tiles, teapots, serving pieces and much, much, more.

Live music by Charlie Scopoletti will be the highlight of the afternoon fun, with craft beer tastings from local breweries from 4pm - 7pm.

This year, the funds raised will go toward a capital investment in a new, energy efficient kiln to replace our aging, 35-year old kiln. As kilns are an essential component to CAC's ability to fulfill its mission, this purchase will directly affect the community.

If you are unable to attend, you can still support us through our Wall of Flame. Proceeds raised will go directly to the purchase of the new kiln. We are also lucky that an anonymous donor has offered matching dollars up to $7,500 for all flame donations, which doubles the impact of your contribution.

Admission is free, family friendly prices for food.
