The event was part of programming around the museum's exhibition "Radical Clay," which highlights work by female Japanese ceramicists. Panelists discussed the historical marginalization of women in ceramics—Shibata noted that in 1990s Japan, studios refused to hire women, while Hennigar explained that until the early 20th century in North Carolina, female artists were only allowed to be decorators, not master ceramicists. The conversation also explored how ceramic pieces reflect their geographic origins and the importance of local artistic communities, such as Seagrove, N.C., which has the largest community of potters in the U.S.
