We would like to thank the individuals and corporations helping to make the state and surrounding region a better place to live, work, learn and play through their generous sponsorships of Clay Center events, performances and programs.
Thank you!
Thanks to the efforts of young gardeners
from Piedmont Elementary School and our After School Explorers Club,
the Clay Center has donated more than 300 pounds of food to Manna
Meal. Veggies like squash, peppers, lettuce, onions, potatoes and lots
of tomatoes grew throughout the summer. As we head into the
fall season, there’s still plenty “growing on” in our garden.
Come check out our winter crop plantings, our kid-
designed irrigation system and more! Both the
butterfly and vegetable gardens are open during
regular gallery hours.
We gratefully recognize the following individuals and companies who have invested in the future of children throughout
West Virginia by providing them with affordable art and science education through generous sponsorship contributions of
$2,500 and above. Sponsors for the fiscal year ending June 30, 2012:
Partnering with the Clay Center is a wonderful way not only to build brand equity, but also to provide exclusive networking and
entertainment experiences for your clients and to accentuate your commitment to the community. If you are interested in exploring these
possibilities, please contact Beth Fanning, sponsorship manager, at 304-561-3536 or bfanning@theclaycenter.org.

The Night at the Museum series is sponsored by BrickStreet Mutual Insurance Company.
Approximately 150 guests dressed in jeans and boots celebrated summer in southern style at Backyard Bluegrass:
Mandolins & Mason Jars, the first Night at the Museum event presented by Friends of Clay Center.
The evening began in the art gallery as guests sampled Smooth Ambler Spirits’ White Whiskey and Old Scout Bourbon
as they voted for their favorite team and artist in the “Gallery Divided” exhibit and explored classic and contemporary
photography in “Artist to Icon” and “The Edge of Vision.”
The main event was planned for the Susan Runyan Maier Sculpture
Garden, but impending rain moved the party to the Maier Foundation
Performance Hall stage. This change of location didn’t seem to slow
down the night, as guests danced to live music from local band the Fort
Hillbillies, enjoyed handcrafted specialty cocktails from Smooth Ambler
and tasted southern bites like pulled pork on cornbread rounds and
fried green tomato bruschetta prepared by Embassy Suites.
Friends board member Tim Gibson said the first-time event was a huge
success.
Backyard Bluegrass was the kick-off to a new series of evening events for Friends of Clay, and we couldn’t be more pleased with the outcome, everyone had a great time, and we can’t wait to plan the next one.
Friends of Clay is an active volunteer service and fundraising organization that supports
the education programs of the Clay Center through special events for its
members and the greater community. To become a member or add Friends
of Clay to your current membership package, contact Miranda Burr at 304-
561-3521 or mburr@theclaycenter.org.
We loved the country/bluegrass feel with a classy yet laid-back atmosphere.
I loved the crowd, the music and the specialty cocktails.
