Okay so google translate seems to be failing me a bit on this one but here’s the best i’ve got:
Alcora l’City Council presents 30 International Ceramics Competition. For this reason, it deserves to celebrate the event difficult to achieve the 3 decades of uninterrupted call, is called a box that delivers a total prize of 16,000 €.
Without doubt, the International Ceramics Competition l’Alcora has become a benchmark in its field worldwide, with an average attendance in the last 10 years more than 150 ceramists from 50 countries worldwide, figures which suggests the wide acceptance of this competition.
The deadline for the competition is the 30 of April and you can find out more here, but hopefully your spanish is better than mine and that of google : )

Deadline: June 1
The Saidye Bronfman Award is Canada’s foremost distinction for excellence in the fine crafts. “Fine Craft” is the term used to define an area of activity in the crafts that is frequently directed towards exhibition and/or sale in a gallery-like setting. This activity involves high levels of technical expertise as well as knowledge of the historical tradition and development of the craft. Through their work, fine crafts practitioners demonstrate new concepts and innovations that expand the boundaries of the medium and its techniques.
In addition, works by the recipient are acquired by the Canadian Museum of Civilization for its permanent collection. Nominees must be professional artists who have created an outstanding body of work, made a substantial contribution to the development of fine crafts in Canada and have been exhibited nationally and internationally. The Canada Council defines a professional artist as someone who has specialized training in the field (not necessarily in academic institutions), who is recognized as such by her or his peers (artists working in the same artistic tradition) and who has been a history of public presentation.
