The Sixth Berkshire Pottery Tour
The Sixth Berkshire Pottery Tour will happen the weekend of Sept. 28-29, with a self-guided motor tour of six working pottery studios around the southern Berkshires.
The potters have been busy all summer making new work. All the studios will display their wares for sale; come experience a diverse array of styles in functional and sculptural ceramics.
Studios will be open from 10-5 each day. Admission is free and families are welcome. The tour runs north-south and then east-west, and can be begun at any point, from the Richmond studio of Ben Evans to Paula Shalan in Stockbridge, Lorimer Burns in Housatonic, Daniel Bellow in Great Barrington and on to Ellen Grenadier in Monterey and Linda Skipper in New Marlborough.
In addition to our six potters, this year’s tour will include four special guest potters: Liz Daley, Ben Krupka, Connie Talbot, and Brendan Moore.
Visitors can have each potter sign their map, with each signature comes a chance to win the grand prize, a mug from each of the six potters. Your map/brochure is your ticket: pick one up at any studio and submit it to any of the potters to be entered for the drawing.
