Shimpo Student Scholars

We would like to thank all of you who have participated in the Shimpo Student Scholar program over the years. Helping young artists to become more involved in the ceramics community is something that we believe to be a worthwhile endeavor and value the opportunity to support.

At this time we are redirecting our support to another area of ceramics education. We are bringing the Shimpo Student Scholar program to a close and in its place we will be supporting the National K12 Ceramic Exhibition Foundation. The work that this organization has presented in the past years at the NCECA Conferences has been outstanding. Many pieces in the exhibit were done by artists as young as the first grade. We hope that by supporting this area of the ceramics world these young K through 12 artists will be able to get the support and encouragement they need to continue to express themselves through art and cultivate their artistic ability.

Shimpo Tradition of Excellence Corporate Collection

We support ceramic artists by purchasing a piece, from the general ceramics community, for our Corporate collection. Each piece has been selected based on its own merits and its contribution to a collection of educational significance. The winning pieces constitute the Tradition of Excellence Corporate Collection and truly represent ceramic art at its finest.

SHIMPO is Pleased to announce this year's Tradition of Excellence winner Black & White Vase with Handbuilt Neck by Samuel Scott.
