EAST FORK POTTERY ONE OF A KIND VASE SILENT AUCTION
Limited edition, one of a kind vase, wheel-thrown by Cade Hollomon-Cook in East Fork’s Small Batch Studio. The piece is one of only two black glazed vases that have ever been released by East Fork, and the glaze was never released in any other dinnerware forms, making this piece incredibly rare.

“Over the years in the bar business I have heard many tales of drugs being dropped into unsuspecting folk’s beverages, and have known a few victims. Our VOICE has been instrumental in bringing awareness to the problem, especially educating staff, who in turn, can make a real difference in educating customers.” – Chad Battles, Co-owner, The Bywater
“Until I went to the [Bar Staff] training, I had no idea that Drug Facilitated Sexual Assault was such a problem. That’s the first step to fixing the problem, being aware that it exists.” – Tim McGill, Manager, Asheville Pizza & Brewing Company
“The Bar Outreach Program has been a great tool in our kit to keep our patrons safe and comfortable.” – Lisa Gambrell, Owner, Desoto Lounge
