Auckland Festival of Ceramics
The Auckland Festival of Ceramics is a celebration across Tāmaki Makarau of work in clay, presented with support from Creative New Zealand and the Blumhardt Foundation.
Now in its third year, the festival is a significant event in the Auckland arts calendar. This year festival organisers are proud to announce that there are more events than ever under the festival umbrella, in a programme that will appeal to everyone from collectors to kids. It provides an opportunity to engage in a variety of ceramic-related events: exhibitions, artists’ and curators’ talks, visits to studios, guided walks, a Crown Lynn and NZ pottery clinic, demonstrations, a chance to have a go on a potter’s wheel, see a kiln being unpacked, or buy some ceramics to enjoy.
Beginning with the opening to the public of the prestigious national Portage Ceramic Awards on 11th November, the Festival runs until December 4th and
includes:
- Two days of Clayathon coach tour of ceramic exhibitions at public and dealer galleries from Titirangi to Hillsborough, the Central City, the North Shore, Matakana and Albany.
- A weekend of open studios
- Clay Out West weekend, including a firing with members of Nga Kaihanga Uku
= The Big Clay Day Out at Auckland Studio Potters
