Our Mission Statement

The Orchard Valley Ceramic Arts Guild fosters a creative, innovative, and supportive

environment for the education of students, professionals, and the public in the ceramic arts.

Muddy hands full hearts

Orchard Valley Ceramic Arts Guild (OVCAG) sponsors and promotes programs that

benefit our members and the community.

We work with the Craft Emergency Relief Fund helping artists needing disaster relief.

We have been involved for 20 years with CSA/Empty Bowls events to raise funds for

homeless services and other local area projects to provide opportunities for our

members to connect with the larger community.

Orchard Valley Ceramic Arts Guild (OVCAG) offers services to nonprofit

organizations in Silicon Valley to assist in the education, promotion and appreciation

of the ceramic arts. OVCAG provides a scholarship fund to encourage self-

expression, technical and artistic development through exhibitions, workshops and

lectures.
