How are the crystals and molecules that make up everything on earth formed?  In this workshop we examine the mysterious world of chemistry through experiments. We learn about how physical and chemical changes take place, make our own special mixtures, and create our own molecules using soft candy. In this way, we learn about chemistry through experience and improve our creative thinking skills.

Memory of Objects

Memory of Objects

In his book exploring the cultural history of souvenirs, Rolf Potts discusses how such objects assume meaning through personal stories: Objects turn into memories with the stories they hold.

Memory of the Region

Memory of the Region

Objects also bear the memory of the geography to which they relate. Ceramics, with soil as their primary material, are directly linked to the land where they are produced: forging a direct relationship with earth, ceramics bear the memory of the soil where they come from.

Remembering the Future

Remembering the Future

How can the future be imagined by looking at a collection or an archive? The lasting quality of ceramics allows us to ponder how the future might be remembered through a ceramics collection, since they render conceivable time eternal.
