This event is held every second year at the Hazelhurst Regional Gallery and Art Centre, Gymea NSW.

The event has been part of the ceramics calendar for the past 50 years
as it used to be held annually.  It has been a spring-board for the
careers of many famous potters and ceramic artists.

In 2012 the event will take place from 22 September with an Official
Opening and will continue until 3 October 2012 when any unsold entries
must be collected.

This year our Judge will be Greg Daly.   Here is a quote from the Entry Form:

the International Academy of Ceramics – Geneva, he is a ceramicist of
national and international standing with works in national and

“In
my own work, I have concern for the whole piece – throwing, finishing,
glazing, firing, decorating are all important to me in the creation of
the work. Images, illusions of surface and the form they are placed upon
to create individual works”.
