Thrown Together: Salt Glazed Stoneware from New York State and Vermont

May 28, 2022 through August 20, 2023

This exhibition celebrates the art of salt glazed stoneware from New York and Vermont, and sheds light on where these utilitarian objects were produced and by whom. Each stoneware piece delights with fanciful patterns, objects, animals, and even people!

The pieces from this exhibition are from the Fenimore Art Museum and The Farmers' Museum collection, and comprise choice pieces from their extensive stoneware collection.
