New Mexico Potters & Clay Artists
Conversations in Clay

This year’s NMPCA show has a multidimensional theme, Conversations in Clay,
encouraging members to participate in different ways, including working
with another artist, NMPCA or non member. Individual pottery or ceramic
art pieces can be submitted with a one-sentence “conversation starter”
description.  Another option is collaboration between two artists as one
piece created together or two pieces comprising one conversation. The
selected works will be exhibited at the Fuller Lodge Art Center.
