Call for Entry Deadline: MNWCA Members Juried Dinnerware Exhibition

Northern Clay Center selected MNWCA’s proposal for a dinnerware exhibition to be held in the spring of 2015. This exhibition is open to all MNWCA members and will be juried by Patty Chalmers, previous McKnight artist and assistant professor at the University of Illinois, Carbondale.

Each participating artist will be asked to create a single place setting and a corresponding menu that celebrates a special life event such as a baby shower, wedding or holiday.  The place setting must include a dinner plate, salad or dessert plate, bowl, drinking vessel and one additional item such as a serving piece or centerpiece.  There is no entry fee.

In order to be included in the jurying process please submit the following:

1. Completed application form, which includes a description of your place setting theme and an image list. 

2. Three (3) images of your work that demonstrate your skill in designing and creating tableware. These do not have to represent the theme you propose. Images should be jpeg and sized at least 300 dpi at 4” X 6”. Title each image with your first initial_last name_numeral. (e.g. m_potter_1)

Submit images and application form via e-mail no later than April 1, 2014 to:  nataleekay@gmail.com. Please include MNWCA Dinnerware Show in the subject line.
