The World Ceramic Exposition Foundation (WOCEF) was founded for the purpose of pioneering new fronts for ceramic art in the 21st century, as well as providing a basis for the Icheon, Gwangju and Yeoju regions to grow and develop into the centers of the international ceramic community. An important means of such growth would be the World Ceramic Biennale Korea (CEBIKO) that is to be held in Gyeonggi Province on a regular basis.

The World Ceramic Exposition Foundation is also involved in activities and enterprises such as the organization of exhibitions, education, research, marketing and assistance to local ceramic industries for the promotion of world ceramic culture, art and industry.

We are currently operates Icheon World Ceramic Center, Gwangju Joseon Royal Kiln Museum, and Yeoju World Ceramic Livingware Gallery, museums that house ceramic art exclusively.
