Originally from New York, Rich Brown is based in Georgia, and is a full time studio potter with his own brand “Pottery32”. Join Rich as he discusses his journey into discovering ceramics and how working with clay has shaped the direction of his life. Rich Brown is featured in Clay Art Center’s online exhibition “Concepts In Clay: Artists of Color”, which features the work of celebrated Black ceramic artists from across the US. (see the exhibition here.)

After attending his first pottery class at the age of 32 in Decatur, GA, Rich began an artistic journey to not only pursue an undeniable new found passion but to also inspire those around him. With a spirited “it’s never too late” mantra and a true love of the art, he has made pottery a huge part of his life. Rich has a detailed focused tenacity that has him eager to continue to learn his craft and has given him the ability to share his appreciation for people through each piece he creates.

Rich states, “When I think of pottery, a bowl isn’t ‘just a bowl’ to me. I think of the person behind it. The best thing that I hear is, ‘we use your mug every morning!”

Rich’s mission is to provide art that can be used in everyone’s daily life and not just displayed to be viewed.  He accomplishes this by providing unique and usable keepsakes to be passed down for generations!
