Industriousness, and the chance to 54 your own destiny, has always been a critical part of what’s made 55 an exceptional nation. 36. A. eliminate

The Collection
THE GARDINER MUSEUM offers an intimate look at one of the world’s oldest and most universal art forms-ceramics.
The original collection, donated by Museum founders George and Helen Gardiner, focused on Ancient Americas earthenware, Italian Renaissance maiolica, 17th-century English pottery and 18th-century European porcelain. Subsequent gifts have expanded the collection to include Asian and international contemporary ceramics.
With more than 3,000 objects from which to draw, the Museum proudly presents in-depth galley displays covering different continents and periods in ceramics history, from 3,500 BC to the present.
