His accomodation during his trip was totally free of charge thanks to Paducah and the exchange program as a Creative City of UNESCO. The PAA (Paducah Art Alliance) and the Paducah Tourist Office have coincided this special trip with Paducah\u2019s 10th anniversary as UNESCO\u2019s Creative City of Crafts and Popular Arts.<\/p>\n<p>Before his trip, ceramist Jamie Romero said that \u201cthe stay in Paducah will be a totally enriching experience both at a human and professional level, as well as a great opportunity to share and meet ceramists with common interests and expand our own vision and perspective about the ceramic art.<\/p>\n<p>Doug Schultz, professor of ceramics in California, also visited us during his gap year and since then comes to our town every year to work with the companions he made there. In fact, last year he also went to the Ceramic Festival, where he met Mitch Kimball, which led him to want to visit Kentucky to learn more about the wood-burning kilns. Doug, for his part, has also visited Paducah for their 10th anniversary.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Manises is part of the Creative Cities Network of UNESCO, within the model of Crafts and Popular Arts.
