About Sunrise Pottery

Sunrise pottery is a unique open air studio. It consists of 5 potters wheels, a slab roller, 3 large plaster tables, a 6 gun and 1 airbrush spray booth. The studio also contains a large ceramic fiber production kiln, and a ceramic fiber test kiln. The open-air studio overlooks a large forested meadow, not far from a beautiful, local river spot. It’s a sanctuary where students and I can feel free to be creative, surrounded by the calm of nature.

Come experience the magic of all the sounds of the birds, the wind in the trees, and a little bit of pottery studio mixed in!
