BACKGROUND

There are several different Pottery Festivals in mid Ohio every July--not just one!

The oldest event is the "Crooksville-Roseville Pottery Festival," which is held at the National Ceramic Museum and Heritage Center.

Another is held at the Comfort Inn (Zanesville), and organized primarily by the McCoy Pottery Collectors Society.

Another is held at the Crooksville (Ohio) High School, and organized by the Hull Pottery Association.

For collectors of such art potteries as Roseville, Weller, or Rookwood, or for those interested in Arts and Crafts-era pottery, contemporary studio pottery, and/or European art pottery, your best bet is an event called "Pottery Lovers Reunion."
