Working with clay enables me to craft works of art that function in everyday; in our kitchen, on our table, held in our hands, used hundreds of times with family and friends. They are to be used in and to illuminate the endless cycles of life that surround and consume us every single day. Front Avenue Pottery & Tile established 2001, designs and creates fine crafted, high quality, playfully decorative dinner and serving ware & clay tile. A BFA graduate from the University of Minnesota, artist & potter, Mary Jo Schmith, was undoubtedly influenced by professors Warren MacKenzie & Mark Pharis and their commitment to functional pottery.
