SIOUX FALLS, S.D. (KELO) — Three different organizations are teaming up to encourage artists of all skill levels to support a special cause.
In a building near East Side Lutheran Church in Sioux Falls, some artists were trying to sharpen their pottery skills.
“My husband and I were a little bit hesitant because I wouldn’t consider either of us to be overly artsy or creative. However, it has just been really a delight,” Cathy Rasmussen said.
“We roll out the clay balls and then we just put it over a paper bowl for a mold. Then, folks have stamps that have been made by first-year Augustana University students, they decorate it and and then voila, we have a bowl,” Church on the Street intern deacon Mara Stillson said.
The bowls will help an important cause.
“We’re making clay bowls as a part of a fundraiser to support Journey of Hope, Pueblo de Dios and Church on the Street, all ministries which help provide a central means and a variety of things to individuals who are experiencing poverty,” Stillson said.
