The latest is out: Ceramist guide 25 years!

The latest edition of the Ceramist Guide North-Holland is out! And it’s an anniversary edition too. So don’t miss out.

For 25 years, this guide has been outlining the diversity of all ceramists in Noord-Holland (“North-Holland” a province in the Netherlands). A handy booklet full of photos, published by the Foundation Keramisten Noord-Holland.

This year with 50 works of the participating ceramic artists. Beautifully designed by Steffie of graphic design agency ‘t Witte Huys. Carefully printed and bound by Prestess Print. It can’t be more “North Holland” than this…

Or can it?

Yes, to pick up the guides I got on my bike last week to fellow ceramist Cock of Atelier de Kruik in Ursem. First, a nice bike ride through the landscape of North-Holland. Then a nice cup of coffee. And finally, I was able to claim my share of the loot. A fresh ink-smelling pile of ceramist guides.

Share the loot?

A handy booklet with 50 photos of the latest ceramics from North Holland. Stay informed and get inspired by the diversity of all contemporary ceramics. Reader beware: texts only in Dutch( but there are a lot of pictures).

My booklets have all been sold, but they are stil available from the board of the Keramisten Noord-Holland.
