Artists Stop #3 and #4 - Allamakee Wood-Fired Potter and Red Hawk Glassworks

Artist stops #3 and #4 (2856 Blair Rd, New Albin, IA) of this years tour is where you will find the very talented Nate and Hallie Evans.  Together they operate Allamakee Wood-Fired Pottery creating beautiful functional wood-fired stoneware.  Friday and Saturday during the tour, Nate and Hallie will be firing their kiln so visitors can see how their pottery is made and fired.  Saturday when the kiln is nearing it's top temperature is a fascinating sight if you've never seen a wood-fired kiln in action.  

In addition to being a very talented potter, Nate Evans operates Red Hawk Glassworks where he creates stunning fused and slumped glass pieces with sandblasted surface decoration.

And if the opportunity to see their gorgeous art and their amazing kiln in action isn't enough, Nate and Hallie will be serving homemade soup and bread from noon until close each day.  Stop in, visit, browse, learn about their processes and eat well.
