Once upon a time…
…a lovely couple in Georgia decided to create a pottery store as a retirement project. They found the old Grandpa Watts grist mill had been closed due to flood damage or “high waters.” They acquired the property, repaired the buildings, set up their studio, remodeled the upstairs into an apartment, and opened up Mark of the Potter in 1969. Mark of the Potter is the oldest-running pottery gallery in Georgia! And 54 years later, we continue to create family traditions! At Mark of the Potter, you will experience the intersection of art and nature where local artists produce and sell American made functional pottery. History lives on in this 1930’s corn grinding mill that overlooks the Soque River where our “giant” pet trout happily await a feeding from our clients.
