Sunup - 5:00 PM
Hewell's Pottery

The name of the festival comes from the fact that the focus is always on "turning" pottery by hand and "burning" it the wood-burning kiln.

In addition to "turning & burning" pottery, other festivities will include:

• The chance for children to experience making pottery
• Basket making
• Chair bottoming
• A functional corn mill
• Corn Shuck Dolls for sale
• Homemade jellies and jams for sale
• Mountain honey for sale
• Blacksmithing
• Old Time Georgia Plow Club exhibitions
• Antique gas engine demonstrations
• Antique farm tractors
• Antique mule-drawn farm machinery
• Antique furniture for sale
• Corn-straw broom making and selling
• Handmade, chain-gang style billfolds for sale
• Watkins lint-o-mint products for sale
• Three local churches will have hamburgers, hotdogs, biscuits, fried pies, etc.
• Four gospel singing groups

Parking and admission are free, so bring the whole family and plan to spend the day with us at Hewell's Pottery.
