Join MMofA’s Chief Curator, Dr. Paul Richelson, as he discusses the collection of American ceramics, glass, and metal, gifted by collectors Charles G. Schoenknecht and Ward A. Paul.

Charles G. Schoenknecht and Ward A. Paul of Grand Rapids, Michigan, long time donors to the museum who had for some 40 years been assembling a collection of decorative arts, both American and European. Following several visits to Mobile, they too saw the gap and offered a curatorially selected body of works as a gift to the Mobile community. This first presentation focuses on the American artists working in ceramic, glass, and metal.
