old pottery...

... in an old cupboard

The museum section of the North Carolina Pottery Center gives a historical tour of pottery in the Seagrove area, but also has display cases for contemporary work, hosts exhibitions and offers classes for both adults and the local school children.

Seagrove, NC, could probably be called the Pottery Capitol. There are over 100 pottery studios there.... Magnolia Place and Jugtown are our favorites. Seagrove is located in an area rich in clay well suited for pottery, and potterymaking can be traced back to the time before colonization. Beautiful pots were, and still are, made by Native American crafters and artists.
