Friends of Pottery, an organization that supports the artists and potters at Western New Mexico University's ceramics department, holds an annual sale of pottery, created by students, professors and professional artists. Many items are donated for the sale. The prices are reasonable and the variety vast. A steady line of customers filed in and out of the building, most leaving with packages in their hands.
