Exploring the untold stories of Hull-House arts programs in the 1920s and 1930s and the pottery program at the commercial Hull-House Kilns, Pots of Promise also addresses the story of Mexicans in Chicago and the history of Hull-House in the years when Jane Addams increasingly turned her attention beyond the settlement house she had co-founded. This is the first book on the Hull-House Kilns and the first thorough analysis of Mexican immigrants in Chicago's Near West Side. Pots of Promise includes 131 color and black-and-white photographs, many of them previously unpublished, and four essays: "Bringing Art to Life: The Practice of Art at Hull-House" by Peggy Glowacki, "Incorporating Reform and Religion: Mexican Immigrants, Hull-House, and the Church" by David A. Badillo, "Shaping Clay, Shaping Lives: The Hull-House Kilns" by Cheryl R. Ganz, and "Forging a Mexican National Identity in Chicago: Mexican Migrants and Hull-House" by Rick A. Lopez.
