La Luz Pottery Factory
Otero County, United States
The La Luz Pottery Factory is a former ceramic production facility located near La Luz in New Mexico. It was built circa 1929, becoming a vital center of ceramic production in the region. In its earliest years, the factory, founded by Rowland Hazard, focused on manufacturing roofing tiles, supplying durable materials for local and regional construction, and flooring tiles. The tiles were used in buildings like the Albuquerque Little Theatre. As production expanded and techniques advanced, the factory evolved beyond its original purpose and began producing a wide range of pottery until it closed down in 1942. In 2012, the Tularosa Basin Historical Society acquired the property for preservation.
