Rebecca Koop has a great shop with amazing work. Check in often to see the latest. She is an artist so her inventory changes often.

Rebecca was my first pottery teacher and is a very well rounded ceramic artist. I took many Raku workshops and classes from her. She also introduced me to glaze making. My experiences there helped me flourish as a potter. I am very grateful for the time I had with her and Back Door Pottery.

This place is so incredibly fun! Rebecca is a great teacher and is very patient. I always have a blast on the Tuesday night classes. There are classes on Thursday, too. My husband and I both enjoy coming here!

I just had a class with Back Door Pottery and it was awesome. I never thought learning pottery would be this exciting.

Rebecca was very skilled. She was friendly and the class was very interesting for novice students. She has a cool place 🙂
