This year special thanks go out to Mile High Ceramics, for donating 250 pounds of clay for bowl making to the Boulder Parks and Recreation Department Pottery Lab at 1010 Aurora.
Also for sale will be soup and muffin mixes from the Denver Women's Bean Project, a nonprofit organization that teaches job readiness and life skills for women, with the goal of transforming their lives and moving them toward self sufficiency.
