April 26th – April 28th, 2013
“This is the kind educational, intellectual event one
expects from museums or universities, but which public institutions seem
less and less able to provide.” – ARTWEEK
CCACA brings the ultimate ceramic sculpture event to Davis, CA from
April 26 – April 28th, 2013. In an intimate setting, you can interact
with top artists in a way not possible at other venues. UC Davis, home
to the late sculptor Robert Arneson, was instrumental in defining a new
direction for ceramic art. Enjoy delightful downtown Davis and be
inspired by nationally recognized ceramic art talents.
Demonstrations, lectures, shows—no other event delivers more inspired
knowledge of ceramic sculpture for a better price. Meet face-to-face
with distinguished ceramic sculptors you might only read about; see and
hear from the artists what makes them top in their field.
