May 3-5

The annual event packs all things pottery into a 3-day weekend full of demonstrations, presentations, showcases, and sales! Hosted by Community Creative Center, the Arkansas Pottery Festival activities are held at locations in and around Fayetteville – all of which are free and open to the public.

This exciting 3 day weekend will include pottery demonstrations and lectures by nationally recognized artists on Friday and Saturday, an exhibition and pottery sale of over 50 potters from around the state. A closing Keynote lecture Saturday night is followed by a cookout and potluck. Vendor booths will include the Clay Bank, and Dickson Street Bookstore.

Locals love the handmade flowerpot fundraiser, with a wide selection of affordable handmade planters and locally grown plants. Get there early to choose the perfect handmade planter, planted with a beautiful flowering plant. A perfect Mother’s Day Gift!
