For over 60 years, internationally acclaimed ceramic artists and educators Susanne and John Stephenson redefined what it means to shape clay. Working side-by-side in their serene studio off Waters Road, this “duo of ceramics” cultivated a lifelong partnership with each other and clay. Both created prolific and distinctive bodies of work and are recognized for their achievements globally. Nestled among the trees on their three-acre country property, their studio became more than a workspace, it was a vibrant haven for creativity and exploration. Over the decades, their property evolved into a playground for the arts and now the public is invited to explore the grounds where their legacy lives on.

Step inside their studio and travel back in time–feel the tools that helped bring their visions to life and learn about their tremendous contributions to the field of ceramics. Explore the storage areas filled with large and small sculptures, vases, bowls and wall plates. During your visit, stop by the Stephenson Ceramic Gallery, a newly opened space on the property that currently features an installation: INTERTWINED. A metal and fiber exhibition of works by Dennis Nahabetian and Katie Shulman.
