Fired Up: A Festival of Ceramics

Fired Up is a fantastic way to explore and celebrate New Zealand’s lively and diverse contemporary ceramics-making.

Join Art Critic Mark Amery or Mary Jane Duffy, Art Professional, to be taken through selected exhibitions from more than a dozen dealer art galleries.

This guided tour of this festival within the Festival is for makers, collectors and anyone keen to learn more about the exciting development in ceramics in Aotearoa New Zealand. Be thrilled at the colours, forms and extraordinary creativity. All with in depth background from the ArtExplore guides, sometimes with impromptu curators and/or Artists talks.
