Showing December 29 - January 25, 2026

From the delicate demitasse to the tall tumbler, this exhibition celebrates the handmade drinking vessel in all its forms. Artists from the Ceramic Guild explore how function meets design in the simple act of holding, pouring, and savoring. Each piece—whether slender and refined or rustic and robust—reveals the maker’s touch through surface, glaze, and form. Discover the artistry behind your favorite morning ritual or evening toast. Functional and sculptural works alike invite you to hold on a little longer—to the warmth, the craftsmanship, and the beauty of ceramics at Scope Gallery.
