Empty Bowls Project

Here are seven bowls that I made at The Cultural Arts Center downtown Columbus. These came up missing for weeks, and were apparently taken off the shelves before their final firing. No explanation was ever given for my bowls not being included. I found them in a box near the shelves where I had placed them. I suspect it may have had to do with my makers mark being on the pots instead of a signature and date. I had payed for the class for 5 years and I was very disappointed when they came up missing.
I found another rec center and finished them just in time to donate them to The Empty Bowls Project. Sometimes it takes near tragic circumstances in order to move and grow. I moved my nearly completed bowls to The Martin Janis Center where they were nearly fired overnight. I am happy with the change. The class costs half as much. I don't have to pay for parking. No one at the new center will remove my bowls from the firing shelf!
