Yingge, situated southwest of the Taipei Basin, began its ceramic industry in 1804, leveraging its abundant clay and minerals. Over two centuries, it has grown into Taiwan's foremost ceramic city, boasting a rich heritage of ceramic culture and technology. Since 2010, the Yingge Ceramics Museum has spearheaded the Taiwan Ceramics Residency Program to preserve Yingge's cultural legacy and inject fresh energy into the city. Providing artists with space, equipment, and technical support, the program encourages both local and international creators to deeply engage with Yingge, fostering community exchanges and positioning Yingge as a hub for global ceramic art practice.
