If you ever have the chance to visit Seagrove, North Carolina, America's largest community of working potters, it's a good idea to plan to stay for at least a day. It is also a good idea to grab a map at the Information Center, as the area is somewhat spread out. There are about 78 potters located throughout the sleepy town of Seagrove, and you will need to drive to most of them.
The Information Center itself sells a nice and colorful selection of pottery from every potter in Seagrove, as well as handmade soaps, crochet items, jewelry, and it's also a great place to get a hot cup of coffee. If you don't have much time, you can do a lot of your initial shopping there and then head to the nearest pottery shops, which are less than a mile down the road.
Seagrove is a great place to visit if you love pottery. You might even see potters at work in some of the shops. It's also nice to see that not all the pottery is the same, and the potters still have their own unique styles and creative ideas.
