Will be in Minneapolis in early November. Does anyone know if Mackenzie
studio is open for visits? How about directions? The big book on him says he
is 12 miles outside of Minneapolis but doesn't give any further info.
Thanks

MacKenzie's studio and showroom can be reached by heading east on route
36 from 694, which is to the north and east of St. Paul, MN, and on the
way to Stillwater, MN. Go about 2 miles and then go left (north) at the
Demontreville exit (which just allows you to get off the highway and onto
the east/west frontage road. Continue east on the frontage road about 1/2
mile to Jasmine road (a dirt road heading north). Follow Jasmine around
a big turn to the left. At the second big turn (this time to the right),
continue straight on. Follow this road, which is still Jasmine but not
very well marked, until the road ends in two driveways, one heading off
to the right and one heading straight in. The one straight in is
Mackenzie's driveway. Follow the driveway around to the right and down
the short hill to the small parking area next to his kiln room. There is
a sign indicating where the showroom is. The showroom is open during
normal business hours.
