EventsThe MIC- International Museum of Ceramics celebrates 80 years of the International Competition of Contemporary Ceramic Art – Faenza Prize. The competition, among the most important in the world, has been fundamental for leading the public and the art world from the concept of ceramics as an exclusively artisan material to that of its being a worthy material for art sculpture.
