Doors to History
Mineral Point usually celebrates Historic Preservation Weekend the first weekend in May. Several years ago the Chamber of Commerce started a “Tour of Homes” that weekend and also did a number of other “historical things” that weekend too.

Mugs, Mugs, Mugs!
What’s on our mind these days? MUGS. We’ve been busy bees in the studio making all the mugs. Tall, short, extra large, carved, inlaid – you name it, we’re making it. In fact, I can hear Coo downstairs in the studio carving patterns and listening to her book on tape as type this. No secrets…
Springtime in the Gallery
Happy spring! Boy oh boy, did we have what seemed to be like the longest season of winter weather in Wisconsin history. Very hyperbolic of me, I know. Usually, I actually quite enjoy the winter weather and I find myself clinging to the colder temps for as long as I can. I like to dress…

We’re happy to report we had another smashing Ornament Making Night this year in the studio. Guests made about 90-100 ornaments this year AND THEY WERE ALL SO GOOD! We really felt like, as…
Fall Art Tour 2022
Another Fall Art Tour is in the books. These last few months have been jam-packed in the studio for us. We fired about a kiln a week from mid-September until the tour. It was a lot. But we have so many new pots! Thank you, thank you, thank you – From the bottom of our…
