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 book is the first on the Hull-House Kilns; it examines Mexicans in the Hull-House colonia, Chicago's largest Mexican settlement. Pots of Promise includes 131 color and black-and-white photographs, many of them previously unpublished, and four essays: ''Bringing Art to Life: The Practice of Art at Hull-House'' by Peggy Glowacki; ''Incorporating Reform and Religion: Mexican Immigrants,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. López.
