The Khmer Ceramics and Fine Arts Centre is dedicated to the preservation of Khmer ancestral pottery techniques and supporting the development of contemporary Khmer ceramic art. Once a fading art, the traditional techniques of Khmer pottery have been rediscovered by the Centre's endeavor, with an improved understanding of various aspects such as Khmer glazing, bisque, kilns, and how different objects are created. It has a recreation of an antique wood-fired Khmer kiln (dragon kiln). Entry is free. Visitors can also enroll in a ceramics class to try their hand at the potter's wheel, fire the kiln, and create their own personal souvenirs for an additional charge.
