The Gardiner Museum is one of the world’s most celebrated specialty museums and one of the only museums specializing in ceramics.

They engage audiences with exhibitions, programs, and hands-on classes, while stewarding a significant permanent collection. They interpret historical ceramics to emphasize their relevance today, and champion emerging and established Canadian artists and their role in the broader world. They innovate through clay education, as it brings together the experience of making with a deeper understanding of the art of ceramics.
