BOUT THE AREA
Welcome to the gently rolling
hills, river valleys, forests, and ridges of Randolph County,
the geographic “heart” of North Carolina! From the Uwharrie
Mountains in the west to the Deep River Valley on the east,
Randolph is a county where potters have always been more
common than doctors, and for many years a county that permitted
no sales of alcoholic beverages yet fostered the racing spirit of
NASCAR by running moonshine along its back roads. The area
is home to NASCAR legend, Richard Petty; World Professional
Bull Riding Champion, Jerome Davis; New York Times Best
Selling Author, Jerry Bledsoe; 1951 Pan-American Games modern pentathlon gold medal winner, Colonel Guy Troy; and
World Skeet Shoot Champion, Craig Kirkman. Not only is Randolph located in the very heart of the state, but its locals
welcome visitors with a heartfelt generous spirit and North Carolina’s trademark southern hospitality!

ELCOME
W
ur region, known as the Heart of North Carolina, is one of North Carolina’s premium destinations!
From the pottery shops of Seagrove to the call of the wild at the North Carolina Zoo, the breezes of the
Uwharrie Mountains, the first family of NASCAR at Petty Enterprises, the expanse of Linbrook Heritage
Estate, and Archdale’s crown jewel, Creekside Park, there are friendly locals to guide you to what I know
will become some of your new favorite places.
2
Observe the remarkable family history and ongoing tradition of pottery in Seagrove where genuine potters are
creating beautiful one-of-a-kind pieces for you to take home. You’ll be pleasantly surprised by the wood cabin
galleries of tableware and folk art pieces; and shops filled with collectible art pieces and historical reproductions.
For the animal lover, your family will love exploring the world’s largest “natural habitat” zoo at the North
Carolina Zoo where you’ll see many majestic creatures, including elephants, gorillas, polar bears, and giraffes.
If you want to learn about the real American South tradition of NASCAR racing, then check out Petty
Enterprises Historic Site, home of seven-time champion, Richard Petty.
For a variety of recreational opportunities, stop by Creekside Park to play our 18-hole championship disc golf course or follow three miles of
walking trails along Muddy Creek. Nearby, tour Linbrook Hall’s elegant 60 room home, one of the largest in the southeast United States,
located atop a hill with sweeping views of the rolling Uwharrie Mountains.
The Heart of North Carolina offers an enchanting mix of Southern charm, mountain beauty, attractions and events that will leave your heart
feeling inspired, exhilarated and energized!

Notes:
V
isit Seagrove, the largest community of potters with the longest continual
history of pottery making in the United States. The ceramic history of the area
began with the abundant and diverse natural clay deposits found in the area.
Native Americans were first to discover this resource and used it for both
functional and ceremonial objects.
Throughout the 1950s, potters worked together to promote
the area. The 1960s and 70s were characterized by social
changes across America with the 1976 Bicentennial
Celebration bringing a renewed interest in handcrafts. The
development of ceramic arts programs by nearby community
colleges led to the training of many area residents, and
Seagrove potters continued to train their children or other
interested apprentices in their craft. Studio artists began
to settle in the area bringing visible changes to Seagrove
throughout the remainder of the 20th century.
In 1982, local potters and citizens, recognizing the strength of continuing to preserve the history and
heritage of their craft, began to celebrate annually the weekend before Thanksgiving by organizing the
Seagrove Pottery Festival. This festival weekend
has now grown to include both the Seagrove
Pottery Festival and the Celebration of Seagrove
Potters.
Today Seagrove is known as the handmade pottery
capital of the United States where artisans create
handcrafted pottery inspired by the same traditions
that began here more than 200 years ago. With
nearly 100 shops and galleries scattered throughout
the area, you will find everything from traditional
tableware to folk and collectible art pieces and
historical reproductions.
EAGROVE
S
The building of the old Plank Road, and later the
emerging railroad system, gave potters access to broad
markets outside of their normal reach and helped to establish Seagrove’s reputation as a pottery
town. In the early 20th century Raleigh couple Jacques and Juliana Busbee, who appreciated the
local craftsmanship, used their marketing skills to promote Seagrove to an even wider market
and collectors began to embrace the craft. By the late
1920s, Seagrove pottery was well-known from the
galleries of New York to the garden shops of Florida.
HISTORICAL PERSPECTIVE
The first immigrant potters,
mostly English and German,
arrived in the late 18th century
from Pennsylvania and Virginia.
They probably settled first in
the areas closest to the Great
Wagon Road, which ran from
Pennsylvania to Georgia,
later migrating to Seagrove.
