Hi Victoria,Please look at our Crafthaus calls:
Earthly Pleasures http://crafthaus.ning.com/group/crafthausexhibition/forum/topics/open-call-earthly-pleasures

Me, Myself and I will be our 7th showhttp://crafthaus.ning.com/group/crafthausexhibition/forum/topics/open-callme-myself-and-i

Sitting Pretty Part 2 is what the exhibition will look likehttp://crafthaus.ning.com/group/sittingprettytheartsittingpretty

A show at Crafthaus has more of an audience then a gallery and offers a permanent stage to the world. We do love gallery shows, but at Crafthaus submission is easy, doesn't cost anything for members. In addition to our calls there are others you may be interested in.

We try to make the submission process as painless as possible! If you have any questions please let us know.Glen & Marie

Hey Victoria! Nice to hear from you. Things are good up here, I'm still trying to work my way in to the Portland art scene but I'm loving the possibilities. I sure miss all my art people though. I see you're still at Arrowmont? True? Are you loving it?

Great! I have so many students interested in mokume gane, and I SUCK at it...would you ever consider coming out as a visiting artist and give a demo? (pardon my shamelessness in asking!)

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!
