theme. Our theme for Containment IV encompasses the the themes from the

unique to our exhibition. Join us as we celebrate, explore and reinvent
the ceramic box!

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

Tell a story in clay
Each of these talented artists tells us a personal story in clay. Each

possibilities with surfaces by combining new techniques to what you
already know. Come and find out how to tell your narrative in clay.
This conference is open to artists at all levels: from enthusiastic
