We will once again have a shuttle between Downtown Concord and ClearWater Arts Center! ClearWater Arts will once again join the fun, with a shuttle van* 🚐 driving continuous loops between Downtown Concord and ClearWater Arts Center! Connecting visitors with the galleries and artist studios at ClearWater where the tenant artists will have their studio doors open, the Main Gallery’s Guest Artist show “Color Riot” will knock your socks off, and the Ceramics Center will be open for touring - while running a Family Public Workshop, “Face Pots,” from 2-4pm! (Registration for that must be in advance— see our ‘Classes’ page & follow instructions. )
You won’t want to miss it!

The Ceramics Center will also be open for walk-through tours, plus there's a public family workshop from 2-4 p.m. where you can make face pots! Registration is required for the workshop and you can register online through CivicRec: https://secure.rec1.com/NC/concord-nc/catalog (Select the arts tab, then the ClearWater Ceramic Center, then go to the second page of the class listings and you'll see the "Family Public Workshop - Face Pots").
