Every year on the first weekend in May, pottery and ceramics studios in Maine open their doors to the public. It's a fun day and a chance to meet the artists, watch demonstrations, peek in the kilns, and shop for pottery and other handmade goods from the makers themselves.
We have dozens of participating studios throughout the state participating in the Tour each year. Attending the Maine Pottery Tour is easy! Before the Tour, our website will have downloadable and interactive maps of tour geographical legs, and our interactive Plan My Tour app has online maps with all the studios to help plan a Pottery Tour road trip.
You can email us at info@mainepotterytour.org.

With over 80 studios and nearly 100 participating artists last year, the Maine Pottery Tour has become one of the state’s most successful and visible craft events. Participants benefit from statewide promotion, shared marketing, a highly motivated audience of art lovers, and the chance to build real relationships with people who care about handmade work. If you’re looking to expand your reach, meet new customers, and connect with Maine’s creative community, the Tour is a powerful way to do it – and we'd love to have you!

Some years, our devoted potters have conflicts that prevent them from being physically available to participate on the Tour. Because they still want to take part and support MPT, and we want our studios to be highlighted on the website throughout the year, we have created this area to list those that are Unable to Participate this year:
