I donated some art work to Steve Tootell, a ceramics educator and potter in Japan for the past 23 years, who is a member of ‘Artists Without Borders” which includes artists; musicians; entertainers and other creative professionals who support “Artists Without Borders”.

In 1999 a new humanitarian organization was founded by Hector Sierra and by foreign and Japanese artists in Tokyo.
This organization works to give the real pleasures of childhood back to kids in war torn areas of the world through art.
Volunteers travel to areas like Afghanistan/ Chechnya/ Kosovo New York/ Armenia/Georgia/Abkhazia/East Timor and Colombia and creating life-changing situation for desperate kids using simple art projects and materials.
Steve is collecting work from potters around the world for a group charity exhibition to be held in Tokyo by the end of 2008 called “POTTERS WITHOUT BORDERS JAPAN”.
Over the past 20 years he has raised over 35,000 US Dollars selling his own work helping kids projects and various organizations around the world.
POTTERY HAS POWER!
