call for submissions: 2014 NCECA Emerging Artists

NCECA’s Emerging
Artists program recognizes exceptional early career artists
through a monetary award, and the opportunity to present
their work to an international audience during
NCECA’s Annual Conference. The monetary awards as
well as opportunities for increased exposure through
exhibition and special events are made possible in part
through the generous support of the Windgate Charitable
Foundation.

NCECA defines an Emerging Artist to be one who
is creating work that offers new/exciting/thoughtful
perspectives that expand upon a genre of creative
production and inquiry. An Emerging Artist may be at the
early stages of receiving recognition for his/her work but
is currently underrepresented through exhibitions or
publications that might otherwise bring the work to wide
attention. The intent of the award is to recognize,
cultivate and amplify vital, new voices of creative
endeavor in ceramics. The award enables these artists to
reach broader national and international audiences and
impact discourse in the field.
