The NCC Pottery Club hosted the Soup’s On Soup Bowl Sale on Wednesday in the ceramics studio. This was the twelfth conception of the event and it raised $2650 for Volunteers Enlisted to Assist People.

Over 400 handthrown stoneware peices were crafted for the sale, according to Martha Wittstruck, and for the first time there was a bowl preview sale. Peices purchased during the preview sale were slightly more expensive, but the extra cost guaranteed the best selection.

Each purchase included a bowl of soup and warm bread. The sale was clearly a hit, as the studio was packed and the tables filled with faculty and students enjoying the goods.
