Paper clay conference and workshops (limited spots available so register early)
Intent is to bring paper clay artists, students and interested learners together and put on an event, with outstanding instructors, a well equipped on-site studio/lab and a venue to nurture your soul all in the beautiful, artist community of Laguna Beach, California.
WORKSHOPS
This workshop is for the beginner or advanced paper clay artist and is packed with tips for building figurative or abstract forms, murals, vessel forms, tiles, bas relief and large pieces. During the four days, you will be exposed to a colorful array of techniques for building and working with paper clay from joining dry, hyper-texture techniques, fired and unfired sculptures, and speed casting rather than the more traditional slip casting.
Workshops consist of four full days of demonstrations (participants will spend two-full days with each artist, Monday – Thursday), information exchange, and hands-on opportunities with two of the world’s premier paper clay artists, Rosette Gault (Washington) and Graham Hay (NZ/Australia).
Deadline is October 30, 2009

Hayward Touring invites proposals for an exhibition to be shown in four UK galleries in 2010/11.
You don’t have to be a professional exhibition maker to propose an idea. We welcome innovative proposals from artists, writers and imaginative thinkers of all kinds, as well as from people working in galleries and museums. It may be a show you have never seen but would like to; there may be a theme or tendency in contemporary art and visual culture that you think deserves to be explored in new ways. Simply describe your project in no more than 600 words, and accompany it with an initial list of artists and a selection of images.
The exhibition will tour to: John Hansard Gallery, Southampton; QUAD, Derby; Oriel Mostyn Gallery, Llandudno; Leamington Spa Art Gallery and Museum.
The successful applicant will receive an honorarium of £3,000 plus £1,000 for research and travel expenses. S/he will work in collaboration with Hayward Touring and the participating galleries on an exhibition of around 130-150 square meters, to open in July 2010. The exhibition budget will allow for some international loans and a modest publication.
