The hunt is on! Pieces of pottery are set to be hidden in random locations throughout Santa Clarita Valley by SCV Potters over the next week as a part of a valley-wide scavenger hunt.

This fall, the SCV Abandoned Art hunt begins Wednesday, Nov. 3, and ends Wednesday, Nov. 10. The week of hunting is followed by the SCV Potters Fall Sale on Saturday, Nov. 13, and Sunday, Nov. 14 in Castaic.

“This is a project we love creating for our Community in the Fall and Spring. It’s so much fun for the ‘hiders’ and ‘finders.’ We love leaving the pieces of art for people to find, and we love reading their messages and seeing the pictures that they post on our Facebook page,” Marlene Bernstein and Susan Grogan said about the project they spearheaded in 2017.  

People of all ages, from all over the city, can enjoy the hunt. Each piece of abandoned art is expected to be in plain view, unwrapped, and with a tag on it instructing the “finder” that they can choose to keep the piece of art, or leave it for another person to find, officials said.

Clues as to where the art is hidden can be found on the “SCVAbandonedArt” Facebook and Instagram pages. The Community can increase their odds of finding a piece of SCV Abandoned Art by joining these pages and receiving notifications when clues are given out, officials said.

“What a boost for a kind of rough day at the hospital! Thank you!” wrote Kira T., an SCV Abandoned Art “finder” on FaceBook.

Following the week of SCV Abandoned Art, the community is invited to attend the SCV Potters Fall Sale on Nov. 13 and 14 from 10 a.m. – 3 p.m. each day at 30460 Cartagena Place in Castaic.

Twelve different potters are scheduled to sell their art on these two days.
