make and do call for entry for The Ceramic Congress

DEADLINE IS MAY1st, 2021

We at Make and Do will be partnering with the Ceramic School (https://ceramic.school) for the upcoming Ceramic Congress May 27-31, 2021. During the congress, we will be showcasing all the amazing ceramic works being made in our great country. We would like to highlight the work of Canadian ceramic artists from each province.

This is where you come in. Do you have a short video that you would like to share with the world? The video could be of your latest works, or a time-lapse of making a teapot, or even a guided tour of your studio! All we ask is that it’s 5 minutes or less and clay-related.

OPEN CALL FOR SUBMISSIONS: Confined

Submissions Due April 2, 2021

We are pleased to announce a national open call for submissions from Canadian clay, glass and copper enamel artists for Confined, a national group exhibition.

In March 2020, Covid-19 brought all of us to a standstill. Many artists didn’t even have access to their studios. As Covid-19 continues to affect us all in our daily life, we invite clay, glass, and copper enamel artists to express in their art what the imposed confinement meant for them.

The selected works will be presented in the exhibition starting in January 2022. A publication will also be produced.
