The Spruce Pine Potters Market is an annual show that is managed and organized by our artists who live and work in a two county area of western North Carolina. The rich history of craft in this mountain region, along with the renowned Penland School of Craft, has brought these artists to call this area home.

ONLINE SALE EVENT

Sale goes ‘live’ the weekend of (what would have been) our open-house sales event.

Due to the widespread damage in our region due to Hurricane Helene, our Fall shows were cancelled. We are ‘pivoting’ to bring a beautiful online sale instead.

If you wonder how you can help Michael and I recover from the impacts of Hurricane Helene, purchasing our pottery is a great way! Also, we are accepting donations at our online SHOP pages. Look for ‘Gift Money’ (with the blue ribbon icon).

Thank you for loving our pottery!
