Cowan Pottery Museum
(Admission is Free)

The Cowan Pottery Museum has more than 1,100 pieces of R. Guy Cowan’s works, the largest Cowan collection in the world. It is significant to American history because it bridged a transition from the arts and crafts movement in pottery represented by Rookwood, Roseville and others to the modern commodities epitomized by art deco designs of the Homer Laughlin Company, Fiesta Wares and others. The Cowan pottery was produced between 1912 and 1917. The museum also purchased the John Brodbeck private collection of more than 800 pieces.
