American Museum of Ceramic Art

Founded in 2001 and opened in September, 2004, the American Museum of Ceramic Art is one of the few museums in the United States devoted exclusively to ceramic art and historic innovations in ceramic technology. It is the mission of AMOCA to educate by presenting, collecting and preserving significant ceramic achievements of the world's cultures from ancient times to the present and through aesthetic and technical study to develop a deeper understanding of cultural values and traditions.
