Come learn about Huntington Pottery, produced locally from the 1820's until about 1900 by the Brown Brothers company. Made from mud, this earthenware was prolific in the region and included pieces such as pitchers, jugs, butter pots, crocks, and more. Longtime collector Mark Smith will discuss the history and production process of this utilitarian artwork, and also display samples from his personal collection. Registration is underway. This program is sponsored by the Friends of the Northport-East Northport Public Library.
