potters in north western michigan

During a brief visit to Petoskey, Michigan (an hour or so from Traverse
City), I happened on a quaint and fabulous gallery called Bier's Art Gallery
and Pottery Studio. This is a place worth visiting (and I'm not related to
them either). It's 7 miles south of Charlevoix; not a long drive from
Traverse City. There were works by: Tami Bier (co-owner), Bonnie Staffel
(origins in Northern Michigan), Steve Kostyshyn, Lynn Fisher and my personal
favorite, Richard Aerni.

The drive along the Lake Michigan shore is relaxing and if you continue on
to the small town of Harbour Springs, you'll be in for an architectural
treat. There, you'll find a resident glass artist, however I'm not sure
about potters.

Hope this helps. I'll be watching for other input on the Northern Michigan
potters.
