Hilltown 6 Potters

Pinch and Hilltown 6 Pottery Tour are proud to announce a collaboration in celebration of the tour’s 20th anniversary, honoring one of Western Massachusetts’ most beloved and enduring ceramic traditions. The month-long exhibition, hosted by Pinch, will feature work from Michael McCarthy, Maya Machin, Hiroshi Nakayama, Mark Shapiro, Christy Knox, Robbie Heidinger, and Sam Taylor.

The celebration will continue during Arts Night Out on Friday, June 12th from 5-8pm. Wine and light snacks will be served at both events, offering visitors an opportunity to engage with the artists, explore the exhibition, and celebrate the rich legacy of studio pottery in the region.
