This place was amazing! We bought so much pottery! Worth every cent. We bought gifts and a whole new dinner set. Love this place, and their work is beautiful. Anyone who comes to Orcas Island needs to stop in here and look at their beautiful artwork! 10 out of 10!!!!

This way exceeds expectations. Worth the 10ish minute drive from Eastsound. Huge selection from at least half a dozen artists! Beautiful grounds to walk around!
