Windy Ridge pots are inspired by the rich global history of folk pottery and grounded in the rolling hills of Southwestern Wisconsin. At the heart of Windy Ridge Pottery is the 30-foot long, three-chambered wood-fired climbing kiln. The unique kiln, multi-day wood firings, and extensive use of hand-processed local clay and glaze materials give Windy Ridge pots character, warmth, and depth. Joe and Christy love to create pots for everyday use and enjoyment, and they look forward to sharing their process, place, and pots with you during Clay in May.

Bruce has been creating ceramic sculpture since 1976. His work ranges from six foot high thrown forms to 52 foot relief murals that require nine or more tons of clay.
In Bruce's firing process, utilizing sodium, the clay surface is melted, preserving the integrity of the media and making the piece very durable.

A great leap of faith brought me to Mineral Point in 1990 where I arrived with my cat, Lewis, and a pile of bricks, and started Story Pottery.
After taking one class in 1972, I have continued to experiment with kiln-building and glaze composition. My bright tableware reflects my interest in color development in high-fire glazes.
