We, the Contemporary Art Pottery Collectors Association, are dedicated to the collection and preservation of pottery in the Arts and Crafts genre.  Our goals are to research the history of this art pottery, share that information with both our membership and the general public, establish a network of collectors, bring those Collectors together at an annual convention, and encourage the buying, selling, and trading of this popular American art pottery.  We look to expand the public’s awareness of Arts and Crafts pottery, not only as an art form, but as a historical reflection of American culture.  In doing so we will promote our goals, enhance friendships among collectors and recruit new members.
