Due to severe damage from Hurricane Helene, we are currently closed.
Unfortunately, we do not know when we will be able to reopen. For updates on our recovery efforts, you can follow us on Facebook and Instagram.
We’ve created a GoFundMe campaign to help cover the costs of rebuilding and restoring our beloved space. If you’re able to support us, any donation—big or small—would make a huge difference as we work to recover.

For any inquiries, you can contact us via email at info @thevillagepotters.com, but please be patient as our response times may be delayed due to recovery efforts.
Please keep us in your thoughts and prayers as we work through this challenging time.
Thank you for your understanding and support.
