Hi everyone!  This group has been mighty quiet!  I just wanted to point out that Holly Gage has opened the Call for Entries for her annual calendar - details are below!  Hope to see TONS of your gorgeous work submitted - y'all are amazing! :-)

(The official details are too long to post on the wall so I've added it as an attachment.  Let me know if you can't see it and want me to e-mail it to you.)

Hello,

I see that there is a new gallery opening in Brooklyn- Brooklyn Metal Works.

They are looking for guest curators. Just thought I'd help spread the word. Wouldn't it be great to have a metal clay exhibit there? I don't feel qualified to curate, or I would submit a proposal myself. Maybe someone here would be interested...

Brooklyn Metal Works 
Brooklyn Metal Works
is a newly opened metal art studio and gallery studio in Brooklyn, NY. BKMW rents studio space and bench space, and offers concept-based classes.

BKMW is now looking for guest curators. If you, or someone you know, has a great idea for an upcoming show, let them know
