Join us each July in Hutchinson, MN for an amazing pottery experience! Dozens of potters from across the country come together for this unique event.
The 2016 festival features the work of 28 artists from all over the US. Two days of pots, potters, competitions, demos, food, and fun.
Potters will be demonstrating different firing techniques. Joe Frank McKee from North Carolina is doing a pit firing demonstration. Pottery challenges will go on throughout both days. Potters will compete for tallest pot, widest pot, and blindfolded throwing style.
There is a kids table for hands on activities.
Come hungry! The Hutchinson Photography Club will be serving delicious food for purchase.
The Minnesota Pottery Festival is made possible in part by grants provided by the Minnesota State Arts Board and the Southwest Minnesota Arts & Humanities Council (SMAHC) through an appropriation by the Minnesota State Legislature from the State's arts and cultural heritage fund with money from the vote of the people of Minnesota on November 4, 2008.
