Welcome to 
Oregon Ceramic Association

    
    The Oregon Ceramic Association is a non-profit organization, which serves many functions. We promote the ceramic arts in all its forms. We believe in educating those who desire to learn our craft.
    In 1959 a group of artists came together and created a non-profit organization where ceramic artists could join and share ideas, techniques, and the common love of spreading the mud.

    The group then formed an association of ceramic artists to band together to educate and help the Ceramic Industry grow. More than Fifty years later we celebrate our continued success, achievements, and love of what we do.
    Over the past six decades the Ceramic Industry, as any industry, has seen times of plenty, with the original Expo center filled and times of strife faced with the uncertainty of presenting the Oregon Ceramic Association's annual show.
    In this struggling economy the Ceramic Industry is also suffering. The few ceramic studios that are left are trying to regenerate our industry for the next generation to enjoy. To do this we need help spreading the word of who and what we are.
    If you are interested in joining the Oregon Ceramic Association and continue to help, teach, and pass on the traditions of ceramics you can go to our forms page for an application or Contact the Oregon Ceramic Association. The knowledge we have the creativity is free. Who knows, you may even learn something new yourself.

We are sad to announce that a member of our industry passed away recently.  Dennis from May's Ceramics passed away April 2019.  He has been a part of our industry for many years and will be surely missed.  God bless his family and comfort them at this time.
