Where


Since the founding of Chester Springs Studio in 1978, The Village of Yellow Springs has dedicated itself to supporting artists, fostering critical engagement in ceramics, and introducing new audiences to this diverse medium.

The Yellow Springs Ceramics National takes a unique approach to format: instead of isolating individual works, it presents bodies of work by each artist, thoughtfully interwoven throughout the gallery space to foster dialogue and visual interplay.

The goal is to offer a more layered and nuanced view of contemporary ceramics. One that reflects the complexity, versatility, and depth of artists working today. Through a careful juror process, the exhibition highlights makers whose practices explore material, form, and surface in distinctive ways.

With a focus on material innovation, exceptional craftsmanship, and the interplay between functional and sculptural approaches, The Yellow Springs Ceramics National celebrates the vibrant voices shaping contemporary ceramics across the country today.
