The Spruce Pine Potters Market is an annual show that is managed and organized by our artists who live and work in a two county area of western North Carolina. The rich history of craft in this region, along with the renowned Penland School of Craft, has brought these artists to call this area home. Our unique combination of artists sets the stage for a dynamic show.

“…The former factory that the Spruce Pine Potters Market (SPPM) is held in features a large, open room with banks of tall windows on the south, west, and north sides. Tall ceilings create a sense of brightness and openness, while wooden posts and beams promote a warm and welcoming feeling. Fall foliage is in full splendor on this weekend in the mountains, and adds to the excitement…”
