Forward Motion
How craft can help us move from a crisis of care to a culture of care.
Hosted on Zoom April 1, 1 pm CT
Marking one year of living under the shadow of a global pandemic, we’re taking an opportunity to pause, to look around us, to reflect. The difficulties we have all grappled with this year have amplified fissures in our society’s concept of care. Reflecting on this pivotal moment, we ask how craft can comfort us and move us from a crisis of care to a culture of care. We’ve designed this American Craft Forum to build on the themes explored in the Spring 2021 issue of American Craft.

DEADLINE IS MAY1st, 2021
We at Make and Do will be partnering with the Ceramic School (https://ceramic.school) for the upcoming Ceramic Congress May 27-31, 2021. During the congress, we will be showcasing all the amazing ceramic works being made in our great country. We would like to highlight the work of Canadian ceramic artists from each province.
This is where you come in. Do you have a short video that you would like to share with the world? The video could be of your latest works, or a time-lapse of making a teapot, or even a guided tour of your studio! All we ask is that it’s 5 minutes or less and clay-related.
