1000 mugs for South Africa invites you to join us in raising money for public education in the Khethani township, South Africa through the sale of a thousand handmade pottery mugs.
Marlene Nelson's dream of making and selling a thousand mugs to support children in South Africa was carried out with the help of her clay colleagues and friends at Harvard's Ceramics Program. Wasma'a Chorbachi coordinated the effort to realize Marlene's dream, and in honor of Marlene's generous spirit hundreds of mugs were made and donated by Wayne Fuerst, Michelle McClurg, Denny McLaughlin, Shawn Panepinto, Nancy Selvage, and many other potters. Even though the 1000 mugs project is not a Harvard University project, we are grateful for all the university does to support arts in the Boston area.
