We’re celebrating our 44th year as a pottery studio!
The “POTTERS WIEL” (Dutch for Potters Wheel or Widening Interest & Enjoyment in Life) was started by Henriette Dresens as a small studio located in the basement of the Runeberg Hall, Norwood in 1980. The studio consisted of three wheels & a kiln purchased with money Henriette earned from waitressing. She is a potter with a vision & a passion for the “Art of Clay”, and the studio blossomed under her dedicated leadership. Today Potters Place is a cooperative studio with 29 member artists, offering many classes and workshops for children and adults.
Our Studio’s mission is to share the pottery experience with our neighboring communities through classes, workshops and special projects for children, teens, and adults.
