Hi Julie;

I visited a Ceramics Institute in Westerwald, Germany while
travelling in '84. It is outside Koblenz on the Rhine River. This was a big
saltglaze center, and their museum was very fine. I think there is an
instructional program there. Do a search on Google or?

Cheers, Hank

I am a graduate of art college in Canada with a BFA in Sculpture. Since
graduating, I have become a 'wanna be' potter- without having much in the
way of formal instruction. I have recently come back from a month in Europe
and have decided that I would like to further my education in Ceramics by
going to school in either France, Italy or Spain. I'm not necessarily
looking for an MFA program, but something that offers a certificate (2
years?) would be nice. I have been looking online, but I thought I'd
explore this avenue also. Anyone have suggestions?

Julie - this idea is not in your listed countries, but
if all else fails, you might consider England.
