A heartfelt thank you to everyone who supported our potters and our community by purchasing Sweepstakes Tickets and contributing to our Fundraiser after Hurricane Helene. Thank you for standing with us during this challenging time. We look forward to creating more beautiful work and sharing it with you, knowing that it was made possible by supporters like you.
Save the date! Our 2025 show will take place October 11 and 12.
Spruce Pine Potters Market is a unique event showcasing the region’s talent in ceramics. Our show represents a wide range of aesthetic and stylistic interpretations, from functional to sculptural pieces.

“The Spruce Pine Potters Market is unique because of the extraordinary quality of the work produced by its members. Individually, these artists are some of the finest craftsmen in the country. Collectively, they bring their high standards, imagination and camaraderie to producing the show.”
-Jenny Lou Sherburne, SPPM Member
