NCS Summer School 2019
Upstairs Downstairs: Ceramics at every Level
13-16 August, 2019
University of Chester
This conference will discuss ceramics made for many levels of society. Our distinguished slate of speakers will cover a wide range of topics, from the 17th century soil pits of Chester Rows to the 20th century display cabinets of royal and noble castles and palaces.
We are pleased to announce a major new update to the NCS website
The members facility to search past publications is much improved.
In the past not all our publications were available to search and those that were had a limited search capability. Now you will be able to fully search all Newsletters except the current year, and all Journals to 2013. The last five years of Journals are available for purchase.
