Background and Overview
Chinese philosopher Lao-tzu wrote, “The journey of a thousand miles begins with a single step.”
Shared Journeys II will explore achievements in Chinese ceramics and influences in the west by examining the legacies and tensions of craftsmanship, pedagogy, philosophy and social currents that have shaped traditions and transformed ceramic art into the present day. Our collaborative journey started with the Shared Journeys Symposium held in October 2008 in Jingdezhen, China. NCECA, West Virginia University and the Jingdezhen Ceramic Institute co-sponsored that event. We now extend an invitation to for you to join in the journey by attending 3 days of inter-cultural discovery on the campus of West Virginia University in Morgantown. Programming will include distinguished lecturers, demonstrations and exhibitions.

Shared Journeys II participant numbers will be limited to maximize opportunities for effective communication and observation. Registration will be limited to no more than 160 participants on a first-come-first served basis.
Registration fees include 2 lunches and 1 dinner. Registration fees will not be pro-rated.
Pre-Symposium Registration ends midnight October 1, 2011.
