What to do and see in Alabama, United States: The Best Paint & Pottery Studios

November 16, 2021 Augustus Redeker

If you head for the hills in the state you’ll end up in the northern sector where the inspiring mountains and attractions like the U.S. Space and Rocket Center in Huntsville, the Blue & Gray Museum in Decatur and the Ave Maria Grotto in Cullman represent the diversity of experiences available in the area. In the middle of the state you’ll find Birmingham, an urban center with great attractions and museums, and Tuscaloosa, the quintessential college town and home to the University of Alabama. For beach lovers, sandy destinations like Dauphin Island near Mobile, Gulf Shores and Orange Beach offer beautiful beaches, superb golf, fantastic seafood restaurants and heaping helpings of Southern hospitality. For those who love to chase the white dimpled ball, Alabama offers one of the best golf values anywhere. The Robert Trent Jones Golf Trail, a collection of 468 holes at 11 different sites across the state, features top-notch, championship style courses at affordable rates.

Great local artwork, books and history! Stopped by here while on a day trip with a friend. We both left with armloads of stuff! Friendly staff, tons of local artists represented here and if you take the time to browse some of the books, there is loads of cultural and regional history. Everything is very reasonably priced, from the quilts to the pottery and books. There are also pottery, painting and other classes that you can take when available on site. If you're in the area, don't miss taking a few minutes (or an hour) to support the locals, and whatever you do, don't leave without a Priester's Pecan Pie!

I planned this class not knowing much, but I am SO glad I went!! My mother in law and I got to have some (long overdue) fun, socially-distanced girl time! Robyn was very helpful, the steps were easy, and we LOVE our “Welcome to Our Home” porch planks that we made!
