Ceramics museum, it collects the history and the centenary tradition of ceramics in Quart. Very educational. Good collection of black pottery. They also host temporary exhibitions of contemporary art. They have workshops where they teach pottery classes. They have also organized international symposia (2016, 2018) inviting artists from other countries, who have donated their works to equip the Museum with pieces of Contemporary Ceramic Art. Very interesting. Too bad it only opens on weekends.
