The function of the North-West Ceramics Foundation is to advise, fundraise, and advocate initiatives that support educational advancement and appreciation of ceramics and ceramists in BC. We are able to support the following scholarships, events, and initiatives through the generosity of ceramicists throughout BC who donate the auction items and dessert plates for our main fundraising biannual event, a dinner and silent auction, From Oven and Kiln.
