Sara Patterson, EarthworksNYC owner/director

Earthworks owner and director with pottery and ceramics at the studioFor decades, Earthworks has been a creative home for potters and sculptors. I threw my first pots here in 1990 — crooked little bowls bursting with promise. What started as a wonderful hobby quickly became my passion and my livelihood. I'm pleased to build on that tradition, and invite you to come find your expression in clay. Look through our website, get to know EarthworksNYC — maybe we're right for you.
