Iraq War veteran, and potter Ehren Tool will bring his clay and potter’s wheel to AAG Wednesday, September 9, 9-12 to make cups, stamp them with military images and give them away to attending Veterans. Since 2001 Ehren has made and given away over 14,000 cups to Veterans across the US. ASU and the Ceramics Research Center are bringing Ehren to the valley to exhibit his cups at the CRC, and to meet with Veterans around the valley. AAG is fortunate to be one of the locations where Ehren will meet with Veterans, and is the only location where he will actually make cups for each veteran who attends. For more information on Ehren’s visit to AAG contact David L. Bradley, davlbradly@gmail.com.
