About the Conference
Now hosted by the North Carolina Pottery Center, the NC Potters Conference is one of the Southeast’s premier ceramics conferences. Throughout its 30+ year history, the conference has featured some of the best ceramics artists from around the world. This conference centers on simultaneous demonstrations cultivating a dialogue of techniques, concepts, and experiences between the artists and the audience. Unlike other conferences, you do not have to pick and choose which workshops to attend. All the demonstrations and presentations are scheduled for the entire group. Potters at any skill level will come away with new ideas and inspiration to improve their work.
"Many Paths, Shared Practice" will explore the ways knowledge is formed, shared, and sustained through clay. Demonstrating artists and speakers will not only reflect on how they teach—across classrooms, studios, and community spaces—but also share practical techniques, processes, and tips from their own making. From foundational skills to personal approaches, this theme highlights the intersection of pedagogy and practice, sharing with attendees both how to make and how to teach through clay.
Our Demonstrating Artists are Maria Dondero (GA) @maria_dondero and Kathy King (MA) @kathykingart with another coming soon!
Our Speakers are Susan Feagin (NC) @susanfeagin, Simon Levin (IL) @woodfire, and Lindsay Emery (NC) @suiteonestudio
Students, professionals, and pottery enthusiasts looking to elevate their art can’t miss the 2027 NC Pottery Conference!
We hope you’ll join us for what is shaping up to be another great conference!
