About the event

Join us at Project Onward for a special Ceramic Mug Portrait Slam an afternoon of live drawing, clay, and one-of-a-kind keepsakes. Our featured artists Janno Juguilon, Ruby Bradford, Fernando Ramirez, and George Zuniga will create custom portraits drawn directly onto ceramic mugs while you sit for them in the studio.


Whether it’s you, a loved one, or a beloved pet, each portrait becomes a functional artwork you can take home and treasure. It’s a rare chance to watch Project Onward artists work live while supporting our studio and the creative practices of artists with mental and developmental disabilities.
