Stepping Into The Craft - Summers In Seagrove

July 4, 2026 - July 25, 2026

Saturdays in July Hours vary at individual shops 

While Seagrove pottery shops are open throughout the year, many studios will have special events taking place during the month of July for Stepping into the Craft – Summers in Seagrove. Visitors can expect anything from kiln openings, demonstrations, hands-on experiences in clay and more. We hope you can plan your visit for a first-hand look at the process of making pottery and discover why Seagrove was voted America’s #1 Town for Craft.

Individual shops plan their own events. Please remember that most shops are typically open, even if they don’t have a special event planned that weekend. You will need to work directly with individual studios for any events that may require reservations (hands-on experiences, etc).

Seagrove is a vibrant community of potters who make their craft year-round. Potters welcome visitors to their studios and shops throughout the year. Shops are dotted along the Pottery Highway, NC 705 and adjacent roads. When you visit Seagrove, you have an opportunity to meet the potters, purchase unique handmade items, and perhaps even see a demonstration or tour a studio.

Select the tabs below for more information and list of participating pottery shops!

We look forward to your visit to Seagrove!
