Artstream Ceramic Library visits Department of Art and Art History

calendar icon26 Feb 2015    

Lincoln, Neb.--The Artstream Ceramic Library is visiting the Department of Art and Art History through March 18. The library is located in Richards Hall Rm. 120.

The mission of this social-outreach project is to connect contemporary functional ceramics with ordinary people. Similar in structure to a literature-based library, the ceramic library loans out unique, handmade cups made by 13 nationally known potters for a period of seven days.

The ceramic library asks that the borrower take a digital photograph of the cup in use and encourages other artforms as well, including music, video and visual art. The photographs and art are then posted online.

The hours the ceramic library will be open are 9 a.m. to 4 p.m.
