The home of Lookout Mountain Pottery has been a local reference point for Southern Appalachian Arts and Crafts since the early 1960s, when Fannie Mennen, a local printmaker, founded the Plum Nelly Clothesline Art Show. Today, Mark Issenberg has returned to contribute to that former inspiration. Mark creates fine ash-glazed functional and decorative stoneware, where he first studied ceramics as a young man under the legendary potter Charles Counts.

Lookout Mountain Pottery, constructed and completed in 1999, is now open to the public. For your personal tour of the pottery, gallery and grounds and for a breathtaking view of North Georgia from the bluffs above Rising Fawn, call 706-398-3232 or email ashpots@aol.com or stop by at 3005 Plum Nelly Road, Rising Fawn, GA 30738. We are always open.
