Our activities

We organize various activities to promote the study and dissemination of ceramics as historical and cultural heritage. Such as guided tours of museums and collections, piece identification sessions, collaborative monographic exhibitions with museums and foundations, and collectors' meetings.

At an academic and museum level, it organizes informative discussions of the artistic world with ceramics as a connecting link, creates collaborative academic events to disseminate knowledge about Catalan ceramics and cooperates with museums and institutions in the preservation of ceramic heritage.
