Pottery
Functional. Fun.
Anthony Stoneware
"While a candidate for a degree in architecture, I satisfied an elective requirement in my curriculum by signing up for a ceramics class. It seemed like a good and creative change of pace. My nonchalance lasted only until I saw a pot being "thrown" on the potter's wheel. It was MAGIC! I was hooked! My architectural training and years of professional practice strongly influence my design decisions for the ceramic pieces I make. My forms are generated from designs evolving from functions. Pots have purpose - they are to be used. I work with the hope that in the process of use my ceramic pieces will enrich not only those who use them, but also the purpose for which they are designed.”

George Lowe
Agora Arts has carried local potter George Lowe’s work for many years and it is always a best seller.
“My life’s work has been about making pottery. For over 50 years my passion for clay has supported me and my family, nurtured and inspired me and has enabled many opportunities and experiences around the world. I was a college educator for over 20 years and a studio artist for over 30 years. I love the physical and mental aspects of making and the humble gesture and spirit of a simple wheel thrown cup. My hope is that the pieces I make will give pleasure to those who use them for years to come.”

Dock 6 Pottery
Dock 6 Pottery is a ceramics studio & gallery, specializing in distinctive handmade pottery, located in the Longfellow neighborhood of Minneapolis and created by Kerry Brooks.
"Pottery is meant to be enjoyed—both on a visual and tactile level. It should catch your eye on a table and should feel satisfying when you pick it up. I want my pottery to be the piece you return to over and over again and enjoy more and more each time you use it."
