CTE Branding GraphicFormed From Flame | Clay - Metal - Glass

Call opens March 13, 2020        Call closes June 5, 2020

For tens of thousands of years we have harnessed the power of fire to harden clay, soften metal and change the very state of sand in order to create objects of both useful function and incredible beauty. It can be argued that these techniques and objects have been critical in the development of human society. In celebration of this history, Valley Art Center is excited to invite artists working in clay, metal, and glass to an exhibit of functional pieces to be on display Summer of 2020. 
3D artists from the Chagrin Valley to around the world are invited to submit their work in Clay, Glass, and Metal. Artists may submit up to three pieces for this exhibit. Functional work will be prioritized during jurying. 
 
Entry deadline 4 p.m. Friday, June 5, 2020. 

Entry Fee: $15 a piece, up to three (3) pieces per artist
For this exhibit, all pieces must be offered for sale (no NFS)
