Six potters from Comer to Watkinsville have come together to form Athens Clay Trail, a tour that opens each artist’s studio to the public for the sale of their functional and sculptural creations. The participating artists are Lori Breedlove, Maria Dondero, Courtney Hamill, Tom Homann, Shawn Ireland and Mathew Meunier. Athens Clay Trail is following the model of other pottery sale events like those of Happy Valley Pottery in Watkinsville and the Ron Meyers and Michael Simon sales of years past. Their goal is to continue the work of putting the Athens area on the map for pottery enthusiasts by creating a sense of community and engaging the public in their work. Visit athensclaytrail.com to see a map of the six studios and plan your route.
