Beautiful work, made by hand, made nearby.

The Pittsburgh Potters Tour

November 21 - 22, 2026

The best way to find work you love is to meet the people who make it. Buy direct from the studio where it’s made, and connect with the maker.  Find that special piece you didn’t know existed. Use it every day. Enjoy it! Give a gift that is special. 

I came for one mug and left with a salad bowl, two bud vases, and a set of espresso cups. No regrets whatsoever. Every studio had something completely different and I loved meeting the artists behind the work. This is now my favorite fall weekend tradition.”

Honestly one of the best gift shopping I’ve ever done. Unique, local, made by hand — you can’t beat it. I knocked out half my holiday list and had a blast doing it. The artists are the nicest people and love talking about their work.
