the center

The core programs of the Carbondale Clay Center are weekly classes, workshops, community outreach, and the artist residency program. Fundraising events and activities take up the rest of the time of daily life at the Clay Center. The yearly schedule includes weekly classes, 2-4 workshops, three major fundraising events: Pairings (March), Cajun Clay Night (July); and our Benefit Cup Auction (December). Ongoing are various types of special use and community outreach activities that utilize the Clay Center facility. The Clay Center is an active and lively place, and we believe there is both the potential, and need, for its programs and facilities to grow.
