Museum of Ceramics

The Museum of Ceramics needs your help. If those of us who love this site cannot manage to find ways to keep it open past May 30, 2008 it will be closed by the Ohio Historical Society which has operated it for the past 28 years.

Why should anyone care about the Museum of Ceramics? Why bother visiting a building filled with a lot of old pottery? As the site’s Historic Site Manager for the past three-and-a-half years, permit me to offer my admittedly biased answers to such questions.

This area currently has a tangible and valuable cultural attraction to rival those found around the world: our own museum. Having visited dozens of museums on this continent and in Europe, I can honestly say that the Museum of Ceramics is a gem. It is every bit as interesting, educational, and valuable as any museum of its size anywhere else.
