Can niche ceramics save the potteries?
Updated on 07 October 2009
A new arts festival dedicated to contemporary ceramics launched this week in Stoke-on-Trent, home of the British pottery industry.
Exhibiting a cross-section of work from more traditional tableware to conceptual pieces, organisers hope the British Ceramics Biennial will revive interest in this traditional craft and help regenerate the old pottery towns.
