We’re home to one of the largest concentrations of potters in the USA, a destination of cultural significance. The Town of Seagrove is “The Handmade Pottery Capital of the United States.” About 80 potters live and work here, many with studios open to the public along Pottery Highway, NC 705. Visitors come from China and Australia and each of the 50 states to visit our countryside and soak up the c

reative vibe.

“Gallery hop" from one pottery shop to the next to see an exceptional variety of pottery and designs, including art pottery, functional pieces, kitchenware, home decor and more. "Making pots" has been a tradition in some families for nine generations. Others have relocated here because of the beauty and inspiration found in this artisan community. When you purchase Seagrove pottery, you support families and individuals artists who make a living at their craft. This page is managed by the Heart of North Carolina Visitors Bureau, serving all of Randolph County, NC. For places to eat in and around Seagrove, visit: http://bit.ly/HeartOfNCDining
