After Hurricane Helene washed us out of Riverview Station, there was a tremendous amount of work to do to rebuild, and this community really showed up to support that effort! Due to the generosity of our supporters, donors, and volunteers, we’ve spent the past year rebuilding the Village, wheel by wheel and wall by wall.

Now the doors have re-opened, it’s time to celebrate, and YOU are invited!

This event will showcase our relocated and expanded facilities, vibrant programming, and the artists and students who bring the space to life. The day will include studio tours, live demonstrations, clay-themed activities, new work by our resident potters, and a dramatic kazegama kiln firing.
