SCCC members - Updated information regarding club events is posted on the member bulletin board in the member only section.
The Springfield Ceramics and Crafts Club turned 95 in May 2019. Over the years both crafting and membership has changed but our mission stays constant "the pursuit of the teaching of ceramics and crafts in their various phases, and through such teaching, to become involved in charitable projects and programs that will benefit the community." The purpose is educational and community service.
