Fired Works 2009: Preview Party

















Fired Works is the regional exhibit and sale that takes place each spring in Macon, GA, sponsored by Macon Arts It's become an event many locals and visitors look forward to, and attendance, as well as artist participation, has increased drastically since 2005, the first year of Fired Works.

The dates for Fired Works, 2009, are April 17th through April 26th. April 17th is the preview party for artists, patrons, sponsors, and the tickets to this wonderful catered event are $25 a piece. This gets you full access to the wine/beer bar, all kinds of food, live entertainment, and grants you first opportunity to view and purchase the wares of over 50 ceramic artists. Many of the artists will be present for the Preview Party, and attendees will have the unique opportunity to discuss the ceramic piece with the artist.

This Fired Works event is great fun, and a wonderful way to kick off a week's worth of ceramic related events.
