23rd Annual Cup Auction

23rd Annual Cup Auction

~ December 3rd - 8th, 2021 ~

Each year, this event brings 250 cups from around the nation to the Roaring Fork Valley of Colorado in an effort to fundraise for the Carbondale Clay Center (CCC). Typically, the auction is held locally in Carbondale, CO, and hundreds of visitors from the surrounding areas come to bid on the collection of cups. This year, we plan to expand on last year’s digital event by having the auction online plus in-person viewing. We are thrilled to provide platforms for both the local and national communities to participate in auction bidding!

Your participation in auction bidding helps to ensure the fulfillment of our mission: enriching lives through the ceramic arts.  All proceeds raised will directly benefit every facet of CCC, including our Artist Residency Program, Gallery & Exhibitions, Educational Ceramic Classes, Community Outreach, Kids Programming, and more.

ONLINE AUCTION

This year, the Annual Cup Auction will be hosted as an online auction.
Bidding will begin December 3rd at 12 pm MST and end December 8th at 5 pm MST.

IN-PERSON VIEWING

All cups will be on display in the CCC Gallery starting First Friday, December 3rd through December 8th.
