In Maine, everyone is a potter

As we drove around Maine, it appeared that every town on the coast was dotted with pottery studios. On Deer Island alone, there are hundreds. Which of course leads me to question, did the potters come to Maine, or did Maine make the potters? Regardless of their origin, resources have emerged for these artists, including Haystack Mountain School of Crafts, which hosts exhibitions and artists in two-week residencies. It's a stunning building, beautifully integrated into the rustic and remote landscape.
