2012 Featured Artists

‘The Featured Artist slot affords a non-juried artist the opportunity to sell work in the gallery

for a month-long period. All Guild members are eligible to apply, and may show work other

than the mugs and tiles to which non-juried potters are usually restricted. A few time slots

remain for 2012, and we're hoping to fill them all. The application process is simple, and no

physical work needs to be submitted for evaluation. Please apply using forms posted here:

GALLERY OF BC CERAMICS:
DEADLINES

Gallery Retail juries

Gallery Retail juries will be taking place three times during the year 2012: June 4 and

Sept. 10.

Exhibition juries

‘This is a reminder to members that you can now apply for an exhibition at the Gallery
of BC Ceramics at any time during the year. We hope this will allow more flexibility and
allow you to put together your submissions when inspiration actually hits you, rather than
having to wait for a specific date to submit. We also look at scheduling a two-year period
to allow more lead time in creating work for exhibitions as well as creating a balanced
exhibition program.

For more specific information on either jury, please refer to the gallery website www.
galleryofbcceramics.com. Select the menu “Artists” and then "Artist Forms” where
you will see "gallery jury applications". Here is the direct link: www.bcpotters.com/
