Vernissage
"35 YEARS OF THE THURINGIAN POTTER'S GUILD · 1990 - 2025"
​​​​​​​Opening of the Exhibition with Reception

To mark the 35th anniversary of its founding, 44 members of the Thuringian Potters' Guild are presenting an impressive exhibition of this diverse, vibrant, and worthy arts and crafts. The product range of the individual potteries extends from everyday tableware to unique artistic pieces, from slip and faience painting to stoneware.

High quality standards in training, the production of high-quality handcrafted products in the potteries and ceramics workshops, and the inclusion of the pottery and ceramics crafts in Germany's State Register of Intangible Cultural Heritage in 2024 are all part of the Thuringian Potters' Guild's success story.

We cordially invite everyone to the opening of the exhibition "35 Years of the Thuringian Potters' Guild" on Saturday, March 22, 2025, at 4 p.m. in the Ceramics Museum!
