​ABOUT ANN

Ann Akland was born and raised in North Carolina. She grew up on her family's tobacco farm in Knightdale. Ann always loved to create things. She started out with drawing and painting, taking a number of studio art courses.  Ann decided to rekindle her passion for art about 16 years ago.   She has always loved pottery and when  a family friend, taught a class at the local community center, Ann signed up. She found she just could not get enough of "throwing clay." Ann has since taken classes with Dan Finch in Bailey and at the John C. Campbell Folk School in Brasstown, NC. 

Ann now has her own pottery studio on the farm in Knightdale. She has both an electric and gas kiln. Gerry is the "muscles" behind the operation--real pottery team work for 16 years! 

​
She has also attended many workshops.   She shows and sells her work at art festivals, in the studio gallery and in her Etsy Shop.​

At this time, the gallery and studio is closed for restocking.
