Mug of the Month

Elevating Artists and Your Everyday Experience

The POCG Mug of the Month program is about more than just mugs—it's about directly supporting our member artists while celebrating their stories, creativity, and artistry. Each month in 2025, we’ll feature one talented clay artist as they create 15 limited-edition mugs that showcase their unique vision and craftsmanship.

With each mug, you’re not just collecting a unique piece that takes your morning coffee to the next level; you’re investing in the growth of local artists, their creative journeys, and the vibrant community we’re building together.

Introducing
PROJECT: Starfish

In August 2024, the PennOhio Clay Guild took a significant step forward in supporting our mission by acquiring a building to be renovated in downtown New Castle. This expanded facility serves as the hub of our programs and clay art operations. It currently features a communal Main Clay Studio, dedicated workspaces, and Artist Suites, with exciting additions on the way—including a retail pottery and supply shoppe and an art exhibition hall.

PROJECT: Starfish is our campaign to formally unite our members, focusing their creative energy and efforts on renovating our new space while expanding opportunities for both our members and the local community.
