ABOUT CEDAR CREEK

Cedar Creek Gallery, winner of the Governor’s Award for Excellence, offers for sale the work of over 200 of America’s most accomplished craftspeople in a unique, relaxing atmosphere.

Cedar Creek’s focus is on representing local and regional fine craft, with an additional emphasis on outstanding craftsmanship found throughout the United States. All of the work they sell is handmade in the United States by small studio artists, with the addition of work by a handful of Canadian artists.

Started in 1968 as a studio and sales space for two potters, it has grown to house over ten potters and glassblowers in private studios on site, and is still family owned and operated. The gallery is a central hub of activity for the resident potters and glassblowers whom can often be found sharing lunch, exchanging ideas about work or life, or discussing collaborations, technical successes or challenges with their work.
