Trudie Alfred (1922 – 2010) was a well- known Sydney potter and
teacher with a great passion for ceramics. She struggled financially to
sustain a ceramic practice in her early years as a potter and so, to
assist others in a similar position, she left a generous bequest to The
Australian Ceramics Association. Trudie specified that the funds be used
to support the work of students preparing to embark on a career in the
field of ceramics.
For further information, and AFTER you have read the Terms and
Conditions, please contact Vicki Grima at The Australian Ceramics
Association.

THEME: Lively Experiments
DEADLINE: September 30, 2014
NCECA’s Emerging Artists
program recognizes exceptional early career artists highlighting them to
an international audience during NCECA’s Annual Conference and
promoting them year round through
blog.nceca.net. The awards include opportunities for increased exposure through exhibition and special events.
NCECA believes that those creating work offering
new/exciting/thoughtful perspectives on the ceramic medium, expanding
upon genres of creative production and inquiry are qualified as
candidates for its Emerging Artist awards. An Emerging Artist may be at
the early stages of receiving recognition for his/her work but is
currently underrepresented through exhibitions or publications that
might otherwise bring the work to wide attention. The intent of the
award is to recognize, cultivate and amplify vital, new voices of
creative endeavor in ceramics. The award enables these artists to reach
broader national and international audiences and impact discourse in the
field.”
Because the concept of emergence in the arts does not invariably
correlate with a specific age, or other quantifiable terms, NCECA
requires applicants to briefly describe why they perceive themselves to
be at an emergent point in their careers and how they anticipate the
award will impact the trajectory of their endeavors. The review
committee, at their discretion, may eliminate candidates that are
considered to be beyond “emerging.” Applicants are also required to
provide letters of support from two figures in the field who are
familiar with their work and drive to create. Letters should provide the
selection committee with a sense of confirmation of the candidates’
seriousness of commitment and potential for continued development.
Application deadline: September 30, 2014
Open to: artists working with ceramic materials/processes as a
significant component of their work. A current NCECA Membership, at the
time of application, is required to be eligible to apply for NCECA’s
Emerging Artists. Applicants may not be students.
Full details here.
