WHO WE ARE

The Potter’s House is a nonprofit bookstore, café, and event space in the Adams Morgan neighborhood of Washington, DC. Since opening our doors in 1960, we have been a hub for meaningful conversation, action and activism, creative expression, and community transformation. Our bookstore specializes in social movements, cultural studies, and spiritual traditions — and we’re known for our skillfully curated selection of gifts, fiction, poetry, and children's books centered on multicultural voices. We host author talks, poetry readings, open mics, local writers' showcases, and much more. Learn more at www.pottershousedc.org.
