A Fond Farewell
To Feats of Clay & Lincoln Arts
For
25 wonderful years, Feats of Clay allowed Lincoln Arts to
share the history
and beauty of generations of artisans at Gladding McBean.
Feats
of Clay welcomed more than 100,000 visitors to Lincoln over
the
years. They enjoyed our little town. They shopped here.
They ate here.
And each left with a better view of Lincoln than when they
arrived.
Feats
of Clay was sustained by the generosity of our biggest businesses:
Teichert, Thunder Valley, Sutter Health, Kaiser, and Sure
West, to name a few. Gladding, McBean gave the unparalleled
use of their factory and the City of Lincoln donated our
home. During the growth of Lincoln, all the builders plus
other entities donated for our success.
But
difficult economic times have resulted in a dramatic reduction
in contributions.
And try as we might, our fundraising this year has failed.
Feats of Clay
won't happen in 2012. And sadly Lincoln Arts has closed
its doors as of February 3rd, 2012.
We
are deeply appreciative for our loyal members, volunteers
and artists who have consistently supported us.
We
bid you a fond farewell.
