http://potterstour.com/index.htm

Nine potters' studios will be open for viewing, demonstrating, and selling Saturday and Sunday, October 15 and 16th.  Go to the link above for complete information.

This is a wonderful way to spend a Fall weekend day going from studio to studio which are generally 15 to 20 minutes apart.  Meet some interesting artisans and see and buy some outstanding work.
