Cedar Creek Gallery is a fine craft gallery located in Creedmoor, North Carolina. Craftspeople work alongside each other, fire wood and gas fired kilns, blow glass and make a living as artists onsite. Cedar Creek Pottery and Gallery was started in 1968 by Sid and Pat Oakley on what used to be an old tobacco field. The Gallery has grown from one building into over ten since then.〔(【引用サイトリンク】publisher=Cedar Creek Gallery )〕 The grounds are well maintained with many plants, flowers and trees. 〔(【引用サイトリンク】publisher=Bulldog Pottery )〕 ==History== Sid and Pat Oakley purchased a plot of land in Northside, NC (now Creedmoor, NC). They affectionately called it Strawberry Fields and would often get visitors asking for the fruit. They used the property to make pottery and sold it on site. Eventually, the little shelter where they sold their wares gave way to a larger and larger space. Sid and Pat invited other craftspeople to work alongside them. A book was written about Sid Oakley entitled "A Simple Life: A Story of Sid Oakley" by Kathy Norcross Watts. Sid Oakley had his pottery commissioned by the Smithsonian. In 1989, Sid was named a North Carolina Living Treasure. 〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=NC Living Treasures )〕
