Lexi for Ceramic League of Miami

At the Ceramic League of Miami, we are fortunate to own our facility of four warehouse bays. That ownership bears with it a responsibility to maintain and if possible, improve our property. For us to fulfill our mission and continue to provide a safe and productive workspace we are in urgent need of critical upgrades to our facilities. This includes refurbishing of our electrical systems, plumbing, and reengineering of our backyard where many of our kilns are located to mitigate major flooding problems. The Miami Summers have become extremely hot and for us to continue and grow our Summer Camps for kids we need to air condition our building. 

CLM has been providing our members and students with a safe place to find friends with a passion for clay and creativity for nearly 75 years. Last year we had 900 students take our classes taught by experienced instructors. Our outreach programming works with other not for profits to bring instruction and workshops to their clients. 

We bring nationally and internationally known artists from around the country for special master classes that are available to anyone. We create twice a year exhibitions of the ceramic arts to teach the public about this seminal art form.

Please consider giving this year to help us raise $100,000 toward these critical improvements so we can continue to deliver the quality education and programming we have proven to provide. 

Disclaimer: Some of the funds raised may go towards the new proposed Air- Conditioning upgrade. I am in the minority of people who feel strongly that this would NOT be an improvement and that we should keep the open-air, no AC atmosphere of the league. Therefore, I kindly ask CLM to use any funds raised through me towards literally ANY other improvement or benefit to the league other than AC. 

That being said, I love the league and it is my second home in Miami. I am deeply grateful for CLM and all of the wonderful people there who come together through the love of clay.
