Dear All,

I would like to visit Warren Mackenzie's studio in Minnesosta sometimes in
January 1999. Does anyone know how to go about contacting him to find out
his address and the time he would be at home? Thank you in advance for
your help.

He lives in Stillwater Mn and would you believe he's in the phone book!!!!!
He's not happy about people coming to his studio but will talk to potters.
Don't get too detailed instructions about finding his house because the
process is almost as much fun as the product. The closer you get to his house
the more people know him and the more helpful they are to set you on the right
track. The little town of Stillwater is quaint with lots of places for an
interesting lunch and the Post Office will help you get started.
Have fun.

I can get you there, and he's been in his studio most of the times I've
visited. I also hear he has more pots around in January.

From Minneapolis, take Route 36 east towards Stillwater. After passing
the White Bear Lake area, watch for a small radio/windmill tower on your
left as you approach County Road 13 (Demontreville Road). Make a left
at 13 (Demontreville), cross the highway, then make an immediate right
onto 60th Street, which parallels 64. Go a quarter mile or less,
passing a Lutheran church, and make a left onto Jasmine Road. Follow
Jasmine, which bears left onto 68th Street N. As soon as you pass
Jacama, start looking for the MacKenzie Pottery sign (I miss it every
time), and make a left onto MacKenzie's farm. Drive past the house,
down the hill, and park by the studio and gallery.

Have fun.
