David Armstrong (1940-2025) founded the American Museum of Ceramic Art in 2004 in Pomona, California.

David’s unwavering vision and dedication to ceramic arts education transformed countless lives. He created more than a museum – he built a vibrant community that continues to inspire and educate. While we will deeply miss his physical presence, David’s spirit will forever resonate through our galleries and ceramic studio.

Your donation will honor David’s legacy and support the future of AMOCA.

Thank you!
