Sautee Nacoochee Folk Pottery Museum

Yesterday we happened upon the Sautee Nacoochee Folk Pottery Museum in Sautee, Georgia. Let the photos tell the story of one of the best pottery museums I have been to. 

Sorry about the photo quality but we arrived late almost at closing.

In the meantime I hope you enjoy the eye candy.



Adjacent the folk pottery museum was a historical museum of the Native Americans and early settlers of the area.



I look forward to learning more about the history and legends of the Native American heritage of the Sautee Nacoochee area.

This post is part of Mud Colony what's happening in the studio. Thanks for reading and for all your comments.
