Williamsburg Pottery
Along Route 60 about five miles west of Williamsburg, Virginia, the traveler comes upon a hodgepodge of buildings, surrounded by huge parking lots. Cars, buses, vans and recreational vehicles funnel into the entrance to this odd settlement, circling around crowds of individuals pushing overloaded shopping carts. Most of the folks with packages are wearing pleased expressions or glazed looks. What is this place? Why are all these people here? What are they after? It has been called "the greatest assemblage of kitsch in America" and "a baffling blot on the landscape" but what it is is the amazing Williamsburg Pottery Factory, a carnival of bargains annually attracting millions to the vast complex at Lightfoot, VA. More than thirty nine cinder block, steel, glass or plastic covered sheds and buildings - whose design could make an architect cry - are spread out over 200 acres of land which are happy hunting grounds of the cost-conscious customer.
