It's not all just plates, you know. Ceramic art encompasses architecture, sculpture as well as beautiful functional items for the home... and all this from baked clay. Explore one of the world's most comprehensive collections of ceramics at the Gardiner Museum, at Queen's Park in Toronto - and you can get in on Friday evenings (between 4pm and 9pm) half-price. Wander through the exhibitions yourself, or take a guided tour at 7pm.
