some days trying to strike a balance between my studio practice, updating this blog and running around with my new baby means that I only have a little time to search for opportunities and events happening out there in the ceramic world. So if you have a posting, an exhibition, call for entry, etc. that you’d like posted here to get the word out please let me know. International posting welcome as the blog is read by 58 countries/territories. You can email me at [email protected] with all the details. I can’t promise I’ll post everything, but I can promise I’ll do my best.
cheers!
