In the heart of the Tucson Gem Show, amidst the glittering array of precious stones and metals, there's an annual celebration that has become a must-attend event for metal clay enthusiasts. Clay Revolution, a trailblazer in the industry, proudly carries the torch lit by the Arizona Metal Clay Artists group back in 2018. In this blog post, we delve into the intriguing story behind why Clay Revolution hosts a party each year during this renowned event.
The Genesis of a Tradition: The Arizona Metal Clay Artists group laid the foundation for the now-iconic Clay Revolution Tucson Gem Show party with a simple yet brilliant idea in 2018. Recognizing the opportunity created by the influx of metal clay enthusiasts in town for the shows, the group hosted a gathering to unite like-minded individuals. This initial event, held with the intention of fostering camaraderie, quickly became a sensation, drawing enthusiasts together in a shared celebration of their passion during the bustling Tucson Gem Show.
Clay Revolution and Carrie Story are such an inspiration to me! I’m headed to Tucson and will be in class bright and early Saturday for a multi-day immersive clay experience. I am so excited to be able to attend again this year.
