On Saturday 23 and Sunday 24 May 2026, Buongiorno Ceramica! returns, bringing ceramic production into historic centers, artisan workshops and public spaces. For two days the event showcases Italian ceramic art with demonstrations, meetings and thematic routes for enthusiasts, families and curious visitors.

The weekend features a packed program: more than 500 events will take place across numerous towns and historic villages known for their ceramic traditions.

• Hands-on workshops for adults and children to try techniques and glazes;
• Exhibitions and installations highlighting historical paths and contemporary experimentation;
• Guided tours of workshops, museums and studios;
• Live demonstrations by master ceramists and emerging designers;
• Food and wine pairings linked to local routes;
• Talks and meetings on tradition, innovation and sustainability in ceramics.

Events run simultaneously in a range of historic towns and villages. Notable ceramic centres involved include Faenza, Deruta, Gubbio, Vietri sul Mare, Caltagirone, Montelupo Fiorentino and Grottaglie, among others.

Practical tips: check the updated program on the official website www.buongiornoceramica.it, book workshops in advance where required, wear comfortable shoes for walking in historic streets and allow time to visit artisan shops and themed routes. Many activities are family-friendly.

Buongiorno Ceramica celebrates local craftsmanship and the cultural heritage of small towns, fostering direct encounters between the public, artisans and cultural institutions.
