The Cumming Research Foundation Email The Cumming Ceramic Research Foundation!
The Cumming Ceramic Research Foundation is a non-profit Canadian federally-incorporated charitable trust, established in 1991 to encourage and support the expansion of knowledge about ceramics, with emphasis on the production of British and European factories dating from the late-18th, 19th and early 20th centuries.


The Foundation is also committed to supporting The George R. Gardiner Museum of Ceramic Art, Toronto, Ontario, Canada, and especially that part of The Cumming Collection which has been donated to the Museum. This is a study Collection, based exclusively on examples from the Minton factory, designed to show the development of English ceramics across the 19th century, on into the early decades of the 20th century. The Cumming Collection at the Gardiner Museum can be seen on the Museum's website at www.gardinermuseum.on.ca
