Canada's National ceramics museum. Three floors of very interesting and beautiful ceramics and porcelain that's not just plates and cups!
Best 15$ spent on a museum. The tremendous amount of porcelain and ceramic collections, and all the knowledge shared makes this visit appealling for both ignorants and experts on pottery.
Nice small museum located not far from the ROM. Went on a friday after 4pm and admission is 50% off 4-9 pm on fridays which is a bonus. Although small it takes time as lots of beautiful things to look at and read about. Was not crowed and was able to take our time at a relaxed pace.
I saw ad for Free family event on Sunday, but when we get there, we were told adult has to buy ticket for $15 each, then the kids can join. I don't think this is correct way to attract customer.
Such a nice museum went and staff were nice made a little clay penguin .They are very clear with instructions.
This is truly a beautiful museum. The ceramic artwork is stunning. A must vist.
Valuable permanent collection, extraordinary architecture, well lit specious rooms, great staff. Pottery classes for kids and adults. Lectures on art history. Special events. Upscale restaurant
The museum was extremely interesting. The volunteer guide was so informative. A must see and thanks for the tour.
Lovely Space for drop-in classes. This area is a little challenging for parking, if you can, I would avoid bringing a car - totally manageable, still.
Very friendly staffs! Ceramic workshop is fun, although the way to get ticket is not Come early to get your ticket, the line is pretty long.
Love going to this place for drop-in clay classes! They offer both hand-building and wheel throwing options, though the latter is more popular so you have to get there early to get seats! The museum is great too, although I wish they had more frequent special exhibits
I stopped in here on a whim while I was visiting Toronto. It's a cool little museum dedicated to the ceramic arts ranging from ancient indigenous American pottery to the modern. Unfortunately, they did not have a special exhibit going on while I was there, but there was plenty of things to see in permanent exhibits. Definitely worth checking out if you have a few hours to spare.
It's an open secret that the Gardiner is a great alternative to the ROM, especially if you're into ceramics, or not into crowds. Right across from the ROM, it's a smaller, more focused museum that offers great exhibits year round. Top floor is a rotating exhibit, 2nd floor is European/Asian and 1st floor is ancient/contemporary. Saw their 10 different new age Christmas trees last week for the first time which was cute. Definitely worth a visit for locals and tourists alike!
