Deadline: July 31, 2006
The American Craft Council provides craft artists the opportunity to display and sell their work through a program of public shows and wholesale markets presented annually in various cities. The Council has developed this successful program over the course of more than 30 years.
Known for professional management, excellent exhibit facilities and vigorous promotional campaigns, American Craft Council Shows enjoy high public attendance and ensure a top retailer audience for artists' work.
To exhibit in any American Craft Council Show in 2007 an artist must submit digital images to the annual jury by July 31, 2006, via Zapp, the online application system and receive a screening score. Image submissions will be accepted only once every year.
Exhibitors will apply in one of two categories that best defines their work. A separate jury of seven people including artists, retailers and leading craft experts will be convened for each of the two application categories. All works must be the designs of the applicant and made in the United States by the applicant or under his/her direct supervision.
Category I Functional or sculptural work for interiors/exteriors
Category II Clothing, jewelry and wearable accessories
Membership in the Council is not required to apply to Council shows. Once accepted into these highly competitive events, however, artists must become Council members to exhibit their work.
