Ceramics seem to have finally broken through in the fine art world, and community studios are having a hard time meeting the demand for classes. Garth Johnson, the Everson Museum of Art’s ceramics curator will detail the astounding people and events that made the rise of ceramics as an artistic discipline possible.
