On November 9th & 10th, Pittsburgh ceramic artists will open their studios once again, inviting the public to see behind the scenes, appreciate their creative process, and explore the immense variety and creativity exhibited by Pittsburgh’s clay community.
The Pittsburgh Potters Tour will feature over 40 different artists across 20 host studios, and is free and open to the public. The tour is self-guided, allowing visitors to pick and choose their destinations. See the map
Connecting with potters
Whether you are a buyer, or a creator, the Pittsburgh Potters Tour is a great way to forge connections. Gallery crawls, art walks, open houses, and open studios are popular ways to generate exposure to the arts and to artists. Seeing pottery demonstrations can help collectors to understand the process behind the finished artwork, and find emerging talents and affordable prices.
