Calls for Submission

Details Available Now for International and National Exhibition Opportunities - National Call for Cheongju International Craft Biennale and BC Call for 2010 Olympics

Canada has been selected to showcase its craft artists at the prestigious Cheongju Craft Biennale, to be held in the fall of 2009, in Cheongju, South Korea. Details about this national call for entry are now available on the CABC website under the news section and on the Canadian Crafts Federation website it’s www. canadiancraftsfederation.ca/korea. Deadline for submission is March 2009.

The CABC has arranged an additional exhibition opportunity for B.C. craft artists, to be held at the Vancouver Museum and to be shown with a selection of works from Canada’s submission to the Biennale in Korea, as well as a travelling exhibit of the fine craft from Korean artists. This exhibit, 2010: Unity & Diversity in Contemporary BC Craft, will be held from mid-January through April 2010 in celebration of the 2010 Winter Olympics. This is an excellent opportunity to show our work to the world. The Call for Entry for the BC 2010 exhibit and details are available on our website at Call for Entry. Deadline for submission is May 2009.

B.C. artists may enter both calls. The timing of the calls allows you to submit to both with the same work, or with different pieces, as you

see fit. Online submission process will be available spring 2009.
