Icheon Ceramics Festival
Icheon-si in Gyeonggi-do Province, a city famous for its pottery ever since the Bronze Age, is hosting a yearly ceramics festival where the city will present some of the country’s most beautiful ceramic arts, such as traditional celadon, white porcelain, gray blue buncheong celadon, and some more modern designs, too.
At the Icheon Ceramics Festival you can explore and buy products from 120 ceramic studios scattered in and around Icheon, as well as pottery crafted by non-Korean artists.
Finally, at the festival site, you can experience making some pottery yourself. You can draw your own design using bisque porcelain or try to form some clay pottery on the wheel.
