Celebration of Spring in Seagrove, A Pottery Tour

9th Annual Spring Kiln Openings and Studio Tours of the Seagrove, NC potters. April 22-23, 2017. Over 65 local potters will host kiln openings, studio tours, demonstrations, and special events. Spring has always been a time for renewal and awakening in Seagrove and this year an unprecedented number of shops are opening their doors at the same time to Celebrate spring. Visitors tour individual studios and workshops and enjoy freshly made pieces. Nestled in the countryside you will find the largest concentration of working potters in the United States. Go behind the scenes to experience the process first hand and have the unique opportunity to meet the artists before buying pottery to take home and enjoy. Those attending will have the opportunity to win a gift certificate for $150 that can be used at one of the participating Celebration of Spring shops. Pick up a card at one of the shops (or download it from the website), get it stamped in six shops and mail it back by May 5, 2016. Qualifying cards will be entered in a drawing, which will take place the weekend of May 15. The Spring Tour Guide can be downloaded from www.discoverseagrove.com and includes a map, shop hours and listing of the participating shops. You can also go to Facebook to see who is participating at www.Facebook.com/CelebrationofSeagrovePotters and link to the individual artists for more information.
