adrienne dellinger

Adrienne Dellinger is a utilitarian potter. She creates pots that enrich the day-to-day experience; pots that are loved even more each time they are used. Adrienne was born in Charlotte, NC. She received her BFA from East Carolina University. She is currently the Executive Director for Clayworks in Charlotte.

Adrienne grew up with both Catawba Valley pottery and pots by Ben Owen and Ben Owen III as well as numer-ous other Seagrove potters in her home. This created a foundation for traditional and utilitarian pottery influ-ences. Attending East Carolina University gave her a strong Japanese influence. Adrienne is an exhibiting member of American Craft Council and Piedmont Craftsmen.
