Current

The CLAY Festival 2019 Exhibition, Current, will be juried by internationally known artist, Sunshine Cobb.

Current intends to reflect the current culture of contemporary ceramics. The longevity of clay lends itself to modern artwork that may reflect this long history, buck against tradition, embrace ritual, or employ new technologies. Current welcomes all entries that speak to the present state of ceramics. Utilitarian ware and sculptural works are welcome.

The submission entry deadline is May 1st, 2019 at 11:59 PM MDT.

call for entries – Juried National V

Red Lodge Clay Center’s biennial Juried National V extends our mission by showcasing current relevant and diverse practices in the field of ceramics. This exhibition provides a spotlight on the breadth of work currently being made that utilizes clay as a featured material. It is our hope that the Juried National will bridge emergent and established makers, and will include some of the best utilitarian, sculptural, traditional and/or experimental work being created today.

Juror: Mike Helke

Mike Helke grew up in Minnesota’s St. Croix Valley, where he still resides and maintains a studio. In addition, Helke is an assistant professor of art/ceramics at the University of Wisconsin-River Falls. He received his MFA from the New York State College of Ceramics at Alfred University, NY.
