====Ceramic events and museums====

Since 1966, Roseville and nearby [[Crooksville, Ohio]], have alternated as hosts of the [[Crooksville-Roseville Pottery Festival]]. The event began as a way to highlight and promote the struggling industry as it was suffering a "slow-death."<ref>{{cite news |title=Roseville to Hold Pottery Festival |url=https://www.newspapers.com/article/lancaster-eagle-gazette-19660730-rosev/167655642/ |work=Lancaster Eagle-Gazette |date=July 30, 1966}}</ref> The inaugural festival was boosted by a surprise appearance from [[Ohio governor]] [[James A. Rhodes]].<ref>{{cite news |title=Gov.

The festival continued even as area potteries went out of business, and over time shifted focus from current industry to the region's history of ceramic manufacturing.<ref>{{cite web |title=Crooksville-Roseville Pottery Festival |url=https://crooksville.com/around-crooksville/crooksville-roseville-pottery-festival/ |website=crooksville.com |publisher=Village of Crooksville, Ohio}}</ref>
