The exhibits in the Museum depict the growth and development of East Liverpool and its ceramic industry from 1840 to 1930, the period during which the city's potteries produced over fifty percent of America's entire ceramics output. Through the skillful use of photographs, ceramic and other artifacts and life-size dioramas, the exhibits vividly portray the products and day-to-day life of one of Ohio's most fascinating cities.

The Museum of Ceramics is locally managed by the Museum of Ceramics Foundation.

Museum Post Office Conference and Events Center
Lebanon, Ohio

General, History, Historic House, Historical Society, Specialized

It seems that about every 20 years, the museum has outgrown its facilities and finds itself in desperate need of expansion. Because the museum building is land-locked, expansion of Harmon Hall was not an option. So in 1998, the historical society purchased the former Lebanon Post Office next door to Harmon Hall. It will provide the needed space in which to continue the tradition of presenting, preserving and storing one of the finest county museum archival and three-dimensional collections in the United States. Renovation began soon thereafter. In 2009 the main room of thePost Office was upgraded with new windows, drapes, new counterwork, a kitchen was installed, additional overhead lighting was installed, the floor was refinished and the room was repainted.
