Union Project’s signature event and Pittsburgh’s largest celebration of ceramics, Mother of All Pottery Sales 2024, will take place on Saturday, May 11, 2024, 11:00 am – 4:00 pm.

Union Project is thrilled to announce Mother of All Pottery Sales (MOAPS) 2024! Ceramic artists will exhibit and sell their work while regional artists demonstrate different techniques to visitors.

Union Project uses the art of ceramics to build meaningful community connections. The Mother of All Pottery Sales brings Pittsburgh’s ceramics community together, artists and patrons alike, for a day of demonstrations, mingling, selling, and sharing. This is a free, all-ages event.

We need artists, food and beverage vendors, and sponsors to pull off a great event that is fun and successful for all involved. If you are interested in participating, click here.

Based on feedback from both artists and guests following MOAPS 2023, we are planning the following:

• Artist booths in the Great Hall will remain more spread out than in years past. There will also be artists selling in the Atrium and ample signage to will be printed to indicate this.
• Artists will have the option to sell their work via a booth indoors or drop work off to be sold at Union Project’s Spotlight Gallery.
• Once again, there will be a paid Early Bird Shopping Hour from 10 am – 11 am with reduced visitor numbers.
• Entry into the main event from 11 am – 4 pm will be free, as always. Pre-registration is not required, however, it is encouraged as pre-registered guests will check in to the event via the new Fast Lane.
