Handmade porcelain ornaments, glazed with iridescent mother-of-pearl, will be available for $25 each at each ceremony. All proceeds will benefit Barton Hospice, a specialty program providing comfort and relief of symptoms to those who are terminally ill. Hospice focuses on the comfort of the patient rather than curative treatments, along with supporting the physical, social, emotional and spiritual care of patients and their loved ones.
Refreshments will be provided following the ceremony.
