The 18,000 sq. foot facility houses six private Resident Potter studios, eighteen joint-use Working Studios for emerging professional potters, three fully equipped educational classrooms, thirteen varying atmospheric kilns, a retail gallery, and clay company that distributes clay (Laguna and Standard clays), raw materials, and pottery tools. Our center’s gallery is one of Western NC’s premier galleries selling fine ceramic art and functional work by our six resident potters and handful of our Working Studio tenants.
