Concord, NH - The New Hampshire Potters Guild is excited to announce the new venue for its Annual Potters Market. This year the Potters Market will be located at the Holiday Inn - Concord. Formerly held Manchester, NH, the Potters Market is a sale of creative and spirited work by ceramic artists throughout the state.

The market was formed five years ago to provide a venue where professional potters and clay artist display along side students and novice potters offering an opportunity to learn "the ropes" of marketing their pottery in a friendly supportive atmosphere.

Pottery available for purchase ranges from hand-made functional items for the kitchen and table to sculptural pieces. Participating artists are eager to discuss their work with market-goers and share the process from wet clay to the kiln. Pottery making Demonstrations will be ongoing from 11:00 a.m. - 2:30 p.m.

On this festive day Concord will be filled with Art events. A few blocks in either direction will be the Concord Arts Market at Eagle Square, and an exhibition at the League of NH Craftsmen Gallery.
