The self-guided 11th Annual Berkshire Pottery Tour is a geographic loop that brings visitors through Richmond, Stockbridge, Housatonic, Great Barrington, and Monterey. Participants can begin the tour at any studio. A detailed map and video previews of each studio are available on the Berkshire Pottery Tour website. Maps will also be available at each studio, and orange and white Berkshire Pottery Tour road signs will mark key turns on the weekend of the event.

Studios will be open from 10am to 5pm each day. Admission is free and families are welcome. The potters will be available to talk about their clay work and/or to demonstrate techniques. With seven host studios and eleven guest potters, there will be a wide variety of styles shown and many pots for sale.

Look for the distinctive orange and white Berkshire Pottery Tour signs at key turns on the weekend of the Tour. A video introduction is also available on the pottery tour website: www.berkshirepotterytour.com.
