ACHF Arts Access
We try to bring in a large variety of clay mediums so that the participating audience can continue developing their clay knowledge. This year we're looking for opportunities to promote the Festival to more families through the school system and library. The festival will foster opportunities for the potters, including emerging artists, to collaborate and share techniques and sell their work. With our targeted marketing campaign, we hope many of the ads will encourage people to bring their whole family or friends. This year we plan to have between 35-40 participating potters and are raising our audience goal to 3,400. We will conduct online and in-person 3545verbal surveys.
