The Gardiner Museum is closed temporarily in response to the COVID-19 outbreak. Check our homepage for a rotating selection of online resources and digital art experiences that you can enjoy at home. Be sure to sign up for our e-newsletter and follow us on social media for your daily ceramics fix.
During our temporary closure, we're posting exhibitions and selections from our collection online through Google Arts & Culture. Discover Inuit ceramics, Chinese and Japanese porcelain, pottery from the Ancient Americas, and more!
Our spring sessional classes and workshops scheduled for April and May have been cancelled. Refunds will be issued automatically. If you have any questions, please email us at mail@gardinermuseum.com.
Every object in our permanent collection can be accessed through our eMuseum portal. Learn about individual collecting areas, like Italian Maiolica or Modern and Contemporary Ceramics, or search the full collection by keyword. You'll be amazed by what you discover!
We're closed until further notice, but we're planning for the day when we can again welcome visitors. We encourage you to renew your membership or otherwise continue your support. This will be vital for when we re-open, and is the optimistic message we all need.
Perfect for birthday parties or bridal/baby showers, or just a fun and creative night out with friends! Groups will work with a professional potter and hand-build their own clay creations.
1.5 hours in length. Programs include all materials, instruction, and firing. Please contact us for cost details and more information.
