Located in Icheon, Gyeonggi-do Province, is a theme park for families. ‘Cerapia’ is a portmanteau of ‘ceramic’ and ‘utopia,’ signifying a utopia of ceramics.
The major facility of Cerapia, Icheon World Ceramic Center, houses a collection of some 2,000 works of contemporary ceramic art from all over the world and hosts diverse special exhibitions to introduce global ceramics to the public.
The Center is a multicultural complex that includes a residency studio for ceramics and glass artists to concentrate on their works of art and invites visitors to see and learn from demonstrations of ceramists as well as glass artists.
With the completion of World Ceramic Center Square in May 2019, Icheon Cerapia was opened anew as a hub where global ceramic artists can engage in exchange.
Cerapia is filled with facilities such as Doseondang Art Shop and the beautiful outdoor ceramic artwork Singing Tree that invite visitors to feel the beauty of ceramics.
