Dickinson Clay Products Company was organized December 18, 1934 and discontinued production in 1937. Originally a brick factory the production of the Art pottery was started to keep the plant open all year since brick and tile were not produced during the winter. The trade name of the pottery was "Dickota" which is the first four letters of the city and the last four letters of the state. In august 1936, Margaret Cable from UND spent several weeks at the Dickinson Clay Plant designing dinnerware. This was known as Dickota Cableware.
