PARTICIPATORY SPORT FOR CRAFT ARTISTS

Sorry to piggy back this but I need your votes or Electra will lose to a sock!

I made a sculpture entirely from recycled materials (apart from the clout nails in the shoes) last year and entered in to the Liverpool Environmental Art Award, apart from the main prize which will be judged by a panel, there is a People's choice Award and a sock monster (sweet though it is) is currently winning! Help me re-dress the balance....

Call for artists....

"Behind the Brooch"

I have always thought that the back of a jewelry piece is as important as the front. If you feel the same way, consider sending images of the front and backside of your brooches to Lorena Angulo asap. Lorena is looking for images to place in a future crafthaus online exhibition!

More information about this call....

Exclusively for crafthaus members
