The bulk of the bowls were tirelessly cranked out by full-time Mesa Arts Center ceramics instructor Jeff Reich, with the help of artist-in-residence Tim Hernandez, Larren Lerdall of Arizona Clay and ceramics student Sue Forrest. Ceramics students from the Mesa public school district also donated 350 pieces to the effort.
Even gubernatorial candidates Fife Symington and Eddie Basha bellied up to the bowl. "This is probably the closest these two have ever been," Schultz noted, as he unveiled the bowls decorated by the two political opponents before the fund-raising event. Sorry, Fife, but Basha's design, featuring a shopping cart next to the Arizona state star superimposed on an outline of the state, won my vote for thematic integrity.
