Anybody suggest/recommend potters/studios south and west of Asheville, NC?
Already know about/visited studios north and east of Ashville, wondering
what's to be found in the other direction.

Thanks, Bill

Quick thought - Judith Duff in Brevard, David Vorhees in Flat Rock, Hank
Goodman in Arden. I assume you checked out all the potters IN Asheville
(there are a bunch concentrated in the River Arts District).
