  • Pots are Everywhere!

    Things are really busy at The Village Potters. There are pots everywhere! Kilns are firing up and then cooling down. No one wanted to fire during this heat wave, but The Southern Highland Craft Fair is next week starting July 19th and we all are going to be there.

    We will be exhibiting our latest work.  Judi’s sculpture, Cat’s Doggie bowls and amazing teapots, and Sarah’s altered forms and some really big pots for that extra special place will all be spotlighted in this show.

    The Gallery is buzzing with shoppers and curious visitors who have come to The Village Potters to see what the life of an artist is like.

    The cooler weather is finally here. So, come visit us at The Village and plan to spend a day at The Southern Highland Craft Fair, Thursday- Sunday,  July 19th-22nd. Come and see the pieces pictured above in their finished form.  I can confidently say you will have a great time and possibly find a wonderful piece of pottery you want to live with.
