Bunnell kicks off the 30th Plate Project and annual membership drive by inviting members at the $250 level to competitively select their commemorative art plates before the opening on May 10th. An artist-led community effort since 1994, the Plate Project provides essential support for the mission and programs of Bunnell Street Arts Center. This year’s plate project will be fired by Plate Project originator, Ahna Iredale. The Plate Project would not be possible without the time and talent of Homer potters who transform hundreds of pounds of clay into 100+ plates each year. This year we thank Lisa Wood, Maygen Lotscher, Marie Herdagen, Jeff Szarzi, David Kaufman, Ahna Iredale, Ruby Haigh, Carl Bice and Chris Story.
Donate at the $250 level and be ready to competitively select your plate early on May 1st. Plates will be available in-person and in the virtual gallery by 10 am: https://www.bunnellarts.org/plate-project/2024-plate-project-gallery/
Visionary donors at the $1,000 level may select their plates at any time.
