Clay Market Registration

The Alabama Clay Market is a highlight of the Alabama Clay Conference, bringing together ceramic artists and collectors from across the region. The market provides an opportunity for artists to showcase and sell their work while connecting with fellow makers, educators, and clay enthusiasts.

ALVAN retains a 30% commission on all Clay Market sales, with the remaining 70% going directly to the artist. Applicable local sales taxes will also be collected.
