Carolina Clay Matters Pottery Guild

The Spring Festival kept us busy — but we didn’t want this to get lost in the shuffle.

Back in April, led a Printing on Clay with AMACO Ceramic Inks workshop for CCM Guild members at Carolina Clay Connection — and it was a wonderful time of learning and community.

Being a part of the CCM Pottery Guild means access to opportunities like this. To learn more about membership, visit https://www.carolinaclaymatters.org/about-membership

Thank you to Kathy and everyone who joined us.

We're still smiling. 🏺🤍

The 2026 Carolina Clay Matters Spring Pottery Festival was everything we hoped for and more. Lines out the door before we even opened — the longest we've ever seen. Over 100 local ceramic artists filling the Ford Building. Students showing their work for the very first time. HEX Coffee keeping everyone caffeinated. And shoppers browsing all the way up to 5pm.

Thank you to Camp North End for being home to the Spring Pottery Festival.

To every potter who loaded up their work and showed up — thank you. To every person who walked through those doors — thank you. This festival exists because of this community.

We'll be back. Mark your calendars for the Fall Pottery Festival on October 10, 2026.

🗓 October 10, 2026 | 10AM–4PM 📍 8300 Monroe Road, Charlotte NC
