BIG ANNOUNCEMENT!
Closing at the end of March 2026
My pottery studio and gallery was established in Mayo, QC in October of 2003. After nearly 23 years in business, I have decided to close my shop.
February 2026 – still giving lessons, workshops and coaching you in your pottery practice.
I’m currently offering private pottery coaching, as well as one-on-one lessons and pottery workshops. Whether you’re a beginner wanting to get your hands muddy or a returning potter looking to deepen your skills, even though time is limited we can still work together, even if it is for a brief time.
March 2026 – The Last Days
Lessons and workshops will end on March 8, 2026. After that, all pottery made by students will be dried, fired, glazed and then glaze fired. All students will be notified by March 21 about their completed pieces which will have to be picked up by April 15, 2026.
If you need coaching, I am offering that service until the end of March, but I cannot fire your pieces if you should want to keep them. I will, however, dry your pieces for you and then you can pick them up and take them to another studio to be fired.
THE BIG FINAL SALE
My final pottery sale will take place from Friday until Sunday, March 27, 28 and 29, 2026. Sale hours will be from 10:00 a.m. until 4:00 p.m.
I will still be selling pottery on the last few days of the month by appointment only. The doors to the pottery will close permanently on March 31, 2026.
LAST MARKET
I will be at Peabody Farm easter Market on Saturday April 4, 2026. This will be your last chance to buy my pottery at a market in Quebec.
Thanks for stopping by. Here’s to big changes and a bright future!

At Poterie LM Serafin Pottery you will find…
Finely crafted stoneware pottery for every day living. I make functional pottery like mugs, bowls, teapots and serving dishes. I’m influenced by the forest that surrounds me and the lake on which I live.
You will also find me…in the studio, usually with a muddy apron on. You’ll find that I care a lot about the people who buy my pottery and the experience my customers have with the pots I make. My goal is to make sure that you are satisfied with every purchase.
The local jewel of Mayo, Forêt la Blanche, is close by if you are looking for a hiking experience. Hiking and shopping for pottery afterwards? What could be better?
Stop in for a chat and a tour and see what’s happening in the workshop.
You can now find a small selection of my pottery in Buckingham at Saisonnia. Saisonnia is located at 490 Avenue de Buckingham.

Poterie LM Serafin Pottery is open almost any time you need it to be opened!
Hours: Tuesday to Sunday, 11:00 a.m. – 4:00 p.m. by appointment only. If you would like to come before or after these times, please call and make a request.
The pottery is opened by appointment year-round and is just 45 minutes from downtown Ottawa, and 20 minutes from downtown Buckingham, QC. For the best pieces, best prices, discounted seconds and special orders, a visit to the gallery in Mayo is a must.
“I have had the pleasure of meeting this lovely artist only once, but have purchased many of her pieces over the last few years. She has created pieces for me on request as well. I love the textures and colours of every piece created. Her glaze techniques and choices are always exquisite. I have a lot of pottery, but the works of this artist are my treasures.”

All of the pottery made at LM Serafin Pottery is food safe. No lead has been used in the glazes.
The clay used is stoneware and fired to a high (2300 F) temperature. Stoneware is durable, but still needs care (SEE How to Care for your Pottery in the menu above).
All of LM Serafin pottery should be hand-washed.
It can be used in the microwave.
You can put it in a warming oven.
The pottery is not cookware.
Automatic dishwashing NOT recommended! It wears the glazes down, and after a few years of regular auto dish washing they look dull and feel tacky because the soap isn’t soap. It’s abrasive material designed to scratch the food from your dishes.
