Alpha Fired Arts Gallery’s Teapot show will once again be in conjunction with Blue Line Arts’ America’s ClayFest III. America’s ClayFest has attracted entries from all over the United States, Canada, Europe, Mexico and Asia. Alpha’s Teapot Show 2014 was one of our most popular shows with patrons and artists alike.

For 2015, we are very fortunate to have esteemed sculptor, Yoshio Taylor, as our juror.
