Pottery for Patients

Each year the Oshkosh North High School Ceramics 2 and 3 students are responsible for generating a community benefit through their ceramic art.  This group of Art students want to support families who have a child who is undergoing medical treatment at the Milwaukee Children's Hospital.  The funds raised will provide free accommodations for the patients family.

Oshkosh North High School Art students will be creating and donating over 80 wheel thrown bowls and mugs.  The handmade pottery will be sold at the Oshkosh North High School Art Night on Thursday May 8th from 5-7 p.m. and at the Oshkosh Farmers Market on Saturday June 7th from 8:00-11:00 a.m. (in space 96.5 E near Peabody's Ale House).  Each piece will be sold for an $8.00 donation to reach our goal of $700 for the Milwaukee Ronald McDonald House.

Please come out and support this great cause!
