CALL for ENTRIES: Best Served Hot

Posted on April 19, 2013 by R.L. Gibson

MUG ME,
Joe

I’ve never been a coffee drinker. Well, I used to submit to occasional peer pressure in social situations. Wait, that didn’t sound like I was talking about coffee did it? I probably have not had coffee, or any of its infinite variations, in over 10 years. Nope, I am really not kidding. I used to have my morning caffeine via a diet soft drink, but now I often drink the caffeine-free variety…if at all. I have friends that cannot comprehend how I function without coffee or caffeine. I dunno. This next Call celebrates the morning coffee ritual. Be careful, contents may be hot…

Check out this Call for Entries from Lillstreet Gallery (Chicago, IL) for Best Served Hot: Ceramics for the Coffee Ritual. The entry fee is reasonable. The jurors are great. And, I’ll bet the coffee at the reception will be fantastic, if you’re into that sort of thing. Chug a lug…

CALL for ENTRIES: 2nd Annual Clay National

Posted on April 15, 2012 by R.L. Gibson

EAT OFF CLAY
not the clay itself

Dinner is cooked (and eaten) in either undies or pajamas in my house. My husband usually cooks dinner. Dinner is cooked directly after work. My husband is a commercial potter. How are these connected? My hubby is forced (by me) to get out of his clay embedded clothing in the garage to prevent a gray trail in his wake. So, he cooks in whatever was under his clothes or pajamas if he makes it that far. This next call WANTS your clay, but please don’t attend the opening in your undies. Take a look…

Check out this Call for Entries from the Workhouse Arts Center (Lorton, VA outside D.C.) for The 2nd Annual Clay National. This is a great show, reasonable fee, respected juror and a historic venue. Please do not miss this opportunity!
