Filmed (most likely) in the summer of 1978, this Super 8mm film documents SCSU art department graduate, Steve Mears, throwing pots in a small studio on my parents property in St. Cloud, Minnesota.

Originally used as a car garage and pluming workshop, the outbuilding was converted to a working ceramic studio by my father in the early seventies.

Over the approximate ten years the Pot Shop was operational, perhaps a dozen artists worked in and sold artwork from this humble structure.

Though the studio was most commonly referred to as the Pot Shop, it's exterior was adorned with a sign reading "Art Mart" which was originally from a small gallery in downtown St. Cloud.

  • Awesome to watch. No computers, machinery or even electricity. Just an artist and his tools, wonderful.

  • We built this shop with Bill Ellingson in 1971 and Tim, my husband, built three wheels, one of which is used here, for the Art Mart!!!
