The Ojai Pottery Market is the Guild’s primary annual fundraiser, supporting its mission-driven work throughout the community. The Ventura County Potters’ Guild (VCPG) is dedicated to supporting and promoting ceramic arts in the region. Through its Outreach Program, the Guild partners with local schools to enrich arts education with hands-on ceramics experiences, classroom demonstrations, and artist mentorship. By sharing materials and expertise, the Guild helps foster creativity, build skills, and connect students with the local arts community.

The Guild is also proud to continue its collaboration with students from the ceramics program at California State University Channel Islands and Ventura College, offering them valuable exposure and experience by their participation in selling at the market.

Attendees can discover an exceptional variety of handmade ceramics, including bowls, mugs, platters, planters, jewelry, and more—each piece uniquely crafted from clay into art. Whether searching for a meaningful gift or a personal treasure, visitors will find work that reflects both skill and imagination.  The ceramics are priced from $25.
