20TH CENTURY CERAMICS

6/10/2024

 
20TH CENTURY CERAMICS
8 WEEK ONLINE ZOOM COURSE
JUNE 10 - JULY 29
MONDAYs 6:30PM - 7:45pm ET
$170 JRACRAFT MEMBERS | $210 NON-MEMBERS
This course follows the seismic developments in the field of studio ceramics in the 20th century. Adelaide Robineau created her first vessel in 1901 and brought American studio ceramics to the world stage just 10 years later by winning the Grand Prix at the Turin International Exposition. Over eight sessions, this course will chronologically trace the development of the field from Robineau’s early accomplishments through the establishment of the G.I. Bill, the 1957 Asilomar conference, the rise of counterculture, and the maturation of the craft market in the 1980s. The fundamental contributions of artists of color and LGBTQ+ artists will be highlighted every step of the way.
​

In addition to eight live Zoom classes, you will receive extensive resources for further readings and watching. Can’t make a class? No worries, classes will be recorded and made available for all class registrants.
