Deadline: February 23rd, 2017

From their call: Blue Line Arts is proud to present Off Center, a
brand new international ceramic art competition for 2017. This year, we
are honored to have such illustrious ceramic artists, Sandra Simon and
Robert Brady, as our judges. Since the first ceramics were created, like
Venus of Dolní Věstonice, before 25,000 BCE and pottery vessels that
were discovered in Jiangxi, China, which date back to 18,000 BC, people
have been fascinated with clay. Here is your opportunity to show what
your vision is in ceramics.

Awards: First Place: $1000., Second Place: $750.,
Third Place: $500., Curator’s Choice: A solo exhibition, to take place
in our Westpark Workshop Gallery in 2018, will be given to one
participating artist.
