Tire City Potters, founded by artist Shishir Chokshi in 2001, is a hub for stunning hand-thrown pottery, private events, and engaging classes. Known for its seasonal workshops like Forever Pumpkins, TCP Throwing Experience, and the Mug Workshop, Tire City has become a cherished destination for pottery enthusiasts and novices alike.
The gallery showcases some of Augusta’s finest pottery—eclectic, hand-thrown pieces that blend artistic flair with everyday functionality.
