Ephraim Pottery Studio Gallery
Where the Ephraim lifestyle comes to life

The Ephraim Pottery Studio Gallery is located in downtown Lake Mills, a charming, historic small town about 20 minutes east of Madison, Wisconsin. Just 1 mile south of I-94, Lake Mills' pretty downtown, with its old-fashioned central park, unique shops, and restaurants, offers a refreshing change of pace from the monotony of the interstate.

Ephraim's gallery has the best selection of our pottery in the country. A wide variety of pieces from our catalog are always available. The gallery is the only retail source of second-quality and irregular pieces of Ephraim, offered at 25%-50% off regular prices. Occasionally you may find other special surprises, such as wall pockets, miniatures or experimental pieces or ornaments. New to our pottery? Learn more here.

The Ephraim Pottery Studio Gallery also carries select other Arts-and-Crafts style furniture and decorative arts, including Archive Edition Textiles, Mission-style furniture from Head, Heart & Hand, and gorgeous letterpress cards from Saturn Press.

Lake Mills is located just south of Interstate 94 about 20 miles east of Madison and about 50 miles west of downtown Milwaukee. It is about a 2.5 hour drive from downtown Chicago and about 4.5 hours from the Twin Cities. The gallery is located on the second floor of an historic building at the corner of Lake and Church streets, one block west of the intersection of Main and Lake. Click here for an interactive map. Street parking is available. There is also a city parking lot kitty-corner across Church Street from the gallery. We hope you'll come visit!

The Cream City brick structure that houses the gallery was built around 1892 by the Fargo Dairy Supply Company. Over the years it had housed the Lake Mills Leader newspaper offices, a printing company, a barber shop/bathhouse, and the police department, to name just a few of the tenants. Most recently it had been used as a municipal building and city garage. After sitting vacant since 1999, it has been transformed into an arts building. Other residents include 3-D Dance Studio and Sweet Lips Art & Gift Gallery, which carries colorful, whimsical objects made mainly by American artists and also serves coffee, gelato and smoothies.

In addition to the Ephraim Pottery studio and office, the lower floor of the building now houses an exhibit and demonstration area which is free and open to the public. Exhibits include historical, educational and changing features. When potters happen to be working in the front studio, visitors can watch them throwing pots from a glassed-in observation area (weekdays only). The exhibit area is usually open during regular business hours (closed holidays). Please come visit!
