Minnesota potters unite for Holiday pop-up
at Mall of America®
BLOOMINGTON, MN— November 4, 2019
This holiday season shop handmade at the largest retail and entertainment destination in the United States. Two local pottery companies are teaming up to host a pop-up at Mall of America. Dock 6 Pottery of Minneapolis and the Clay Coyote of Hutchinson are bringing their one-of-a-kind ceramics to a wider audience.
The holiday pop-up, Ceramica: A Collaboration in Clay opened on Friday, November 1, 2019 and will run through early-January. The new, 2,300 square foot storefront is located on Level 1, West, adjacent to Nordstrom. The shop will feature handmade pottery from both Dock 6 and Clay Coyote collections. There will also be a selection of other handmade gifts from artists across the USA.
"This move to Mall of America will position our potteries to reach a global audience during the heart of holiday shopping," said Morgan Baum, CEO and Owner of the Clay Coyote. “Our vision for the new storefront is to combine our talents to offer a wide-range of handmade pottery for all your holiday needs … serving, decorating, and, of course, unique gifts.”
The Clay Coyote and Dock 6 Pottery are both nationally renowned brands run by two female small business owners, Morgan Baum and Kerry Brooks. Both companies create handmade, functional, pottery designed to enhance your home. Dock 6 specializes in unique designs combining fused glass and pottery to evoke a sensation of the natural world. Clay Coyote is most well known for their Chef’s Line of Flameware pottery that can be used on the stovetop, grill, broiler, and oven.
“Pottery is meant to be enjoyed—both on a visual and tactile level. It should catch your eye on a table and should feel satisfying when you pick it up. It should be the piece you return to over and over again.” said Kerry Brooks, Owner of Dock 6 Pottery. "Our goal is to give everyone the opportunity to share the love of handmade ceramics to their friends and family this holiday season."
