Not many companies can say that they’ve been in business for 100 years and counting–and almost anyone would agree that such longevity is a pretty remarkable event. American Art Clay Company, Inc. (AMACO) is proud to claim this distinction, celebrating with a new building, new products, and an optimistic outlook for the next 100 years. In 2004, AMACO moved to new facilities with 50% more space than their former building. It was no small task to move a company of this size… it took 120 trailers to transport inventory, furniture, and equipment from the old building to their new location.

At DiamondCore® Tools, we’ve been on a mission to change the world of ceramic arts since 1996. We create and manufacture innovative, high-quality, hand-crafted tools that are essential for artists and creators working with ceramics, glass, tile, wax and other materials. 

The Morean Ceramics Research Center (MCRC) is a year-round workshop series that brings the best in contemporary ceramics to the campus of Western Michigan University. The MCRC hosts hands-on studio intensive workshops with local and visiting ceramic artists and designers from around the country and around the world. Through demonstration and in-depth discussion, participants experiment and produce artwork under the mentorship of our talented instructors, creating an inspiring and unforgettable experience.
