Located in the historic Liberty Building in Spokane, Washington, Pottery Place Plus was founded in 1978 by a group of industrious potters looking for a way to market their pottery. Over time, the shop has evolved into an outlet for many different types of fine craft work, including metal, fibre, jewelry, candles, glass, and more. Since the shop is a cooperative and owned and operated by the artists, it has a very egalitarian feel to it. The beauty and creativity evident here at PPP is astounding.
Even better: each month the Pottery Place Plus hosts various new guest artists. It is a great way to check out what some up-and-coming artisans are doing. A reception for the artists are on the First Friday of each month from 5pm to 9pm. This totally reminded me of the Lux Art Institute here in Encintas, CA.
I was just wandering around the Riverfront Park area and happened to come upon Pottery Place Plus. I was fascinated to find out it is the oldest Cooperative of Potters & Craftspeople on the West Coast! Right next to Auntie's Bookstore, Pottery Place Plus is not to be missed. Prepare yourself to be charmed by all the wonderful and exceptional things they sell. The hand-crafted candles are divine and the jewelry is magnificent. PPP has a lot to offer and even though pottery still rules the roost here, there is so much more. 5 YELP STARS ALL THE WAY!
