Vase Raffle for Greenwich House Pottery

Greenwich House Pottery has been a beacon of culture for the ceramics community in New York City and beyond since 1904. Today, they continue to regularly host classes and exhibitions and also support a residency program. GHP has also long been a personal source of inspiration for Jono in his own creative practice.

Now, the organization is raising funds to help continue the work they do, by tackling urgently needed renovations and expanding their historic facility.

So, to help them reach their fundraising goal, this month, we’re hosting a raffle for a one-of-a-kind, large-scale floor vase handmade by Jono. This piece is created by extruding individual sections, which are then cut at an angle and connected using a score and slip method. After that, it’s placed on the wheel, where Jono works the seams until the sections of the vase become one single piece. To achieve the organic glazing style, the piece is suspended from ropes and glaze is hand-poured onto the clay.

Purchase a $5 raffle ticket to make this show-stopping piece your own and support an iconic ceramics institution in the process.

Winner will be announced via an Instagram Live drawing on Monday, August 14th.
