Jugtown & Mark Hewitt Pottery

Jugtown Pottery, a working pottery and an American Craft Shop, is located in Seagrove, NC in the community of Westmoore. It was started in 1917 by two artists from Raleigh, North Carolina who shared a love for pottery, Jacques and Juliana Busbee. Today Jugtown still follows the same approach to pottery as laid out by the Busbees. Master potter, Vernon Owens, with his wife Pamela and son, Travis, follow the same approach to pottery as Jugtown did when it began in 1917. They are to pottery much like Ford is to cars — a family business whose pieces have evolved in style yet have remained incredibly true to its roots.
