  • If you are interested in seeing ceramic art locally, I have several suggestions: at Santa Ana College, which as a fabulous program lead by professor Patric S. Crabb, there is a permanent display in an outdoor show case on the south side of Building "C". There are works of 20 advanced students on display. Also, currently there is a display of African pieces by advanced students in the lobby of Building "C". Another current location to see ceramic art in a Santa Ana location is Muddy's Studio, they are having a jurried show in Myers Gallery. Here is a link: http://www.muddysstudio.com/show2.htm
