Connections: Small Tapestry International
Connections: Small Tapestry International
The American Tapestry Alliance
2009
The American Tapestry Alliance is a not-for-profit, member-supported organization seeking to exhibit the best of contemporary tapestry. Since 1986 ATA has sponsored a biennial, juried exhibition, the American Tapestry Biennial, and it now announces the first in a series of juried small tapestry exhibitions: "Connections: Small Tapestry International."
ATA invites all tapestry artists to expand their horizons by shrinking dimensions, to connect technique and concept in a body of new and intimate work. As wall sized tapestries command a wall, these pieces, individually and collectively, will catch the eye, invite us in, and connect us as we share the unexpected. Because the goal is not merely to rescale large work, but to explore the boundaries of size, the exhibition will challenge preconceived ideas of tapestry, unfolding the potential of small scale work as it explores the personal and the universal.
Juror:
Jane Sauer of Jane Sauer Gallery, Santa Fe, NM.
Entry Information:
Maximum size 100 sq. in./ 625 sq. cm.).
Artists are encouraged to push the idea of connections with concepts, techniques, other artists, the viewer or other areas of artistic investigation.

Craft Con 2008
Craft Con 2008
San Francisco, CA
April 4 - 6, 2008
Craft Con 2008 heralds huge growth for the project. The event in San Francisco has been planned via the internet by crafters from all over the world. April’s conference will welcome participants from all areas of crafting, making a special effort to connect younger and upcoming crafters with the experience and savvy of their antecedents. Craft Con will facilitate much broader discussion and planning in key areas of concern for the movement, in particular the viability of sustainable business and enterprise and establishing the permanence of crafting in society.
Craft Con was born in 2007 as Craft Congress in Pittsburgh, PA. This launch event brought together more than fifty indie craft show organizers from across the US, Canada, as well as the UK, to share knowledge, skills and experiences. Topics ranged all the way from guerrilla marketing strategy to securing corporate sponsorship. Colleagues from across the world were able to meet face to face for the first time. Establishing a strong and supportive network for those who attended, the event also sparked crucial discussion about the future of the craft movement.
There are 250 seats available for Craft Con 2008.
Topics for discussion will include:
Business: Profit Models, Legal Structures, Alternative Business Models, Getting Published; Philosophy: What Does Handmade Mean?; The Politics of Crafting, Crafting Green
Workshops will include:
Project Management, Product Development and Broadening Your Base, Seeking and Retaining Sponsorship, Computer Social Networking Toolbox, Real Life Social Networking Toolbox
Movers and Shakers to knit up a red carpet for:
Tina Barseghian, Editor in Chief of Craft Magazine and author of “Get a Hobby”; Faythe Levine, creator of the film/print project Handmade Nation; The Girly Show; Jeanee Ledoux of Honeydoux and “Abode a la Mode: 44 Projects for Hip Home Decor”; Extreme Craft
In addition to panels, presentations, and small group discussions, Craft Con 2008 participants will enjoy extra-curricular activities including a tour of San Francisco April 4 followed by a cocktail party hosted by Readymade Magazine, and a gala in their honor Saturday, April 5th. This gala will provide visitors a unique opportunity to interact with San Francisco’s local arts scene.
Applications (http://craftcon.org/application/) are being accepted on an ongoing basis until the event is full, with a new cutoff date of March 25. The cost of attending the event is $150/person, which includes a tour of San Francisco April 4th, meals and sessions April 5th and 6th, and a gala event the evening of April 5th where conference attendees will get to experience the unique culture of the San Francisco arts scene.

DIY City Mag
DIY City Mag
Online Magazine
DIY City is an online magazine that celebrates the independent artist and the DIY spirit. The idea for the mag grew out of a need to find art supplies and resources in New York City. NYC was a natural pick for our first issue as it seems that just about everyone moonlights doing some type of creative work. DIY, or do-it-yourself, has a broad range of meanings. For us it represents the creative spirit of individuals making things in a move away from mass production. Some of the DIYs we’ve met make wares to give or trade with others, while many others make them to sell in the ever growing DIY marketplace.
In our first issue you will find NYC themed products, as well as some of our favorite DIY resources. We will also bring you an inside look at some indie designers living and working in New York. Each issue will highlight a different, exciting DIY city.
In the second issue of DIY City mag, we will bring you DIY stories and resources from New Orleans. Join us as we travel to the Big Easy and meet DIYs and indie artists and discover the resources that they love in this one-of-a-kind city. We promise you will catch a glimpse of the wonderful creative spirit of the artists living in this mysterious and inviting city. Join us as we peek behind the masks and reveal something of the heart and soul of our friends and family.
DIY City mag Issue 2 will be about New Orleans - if you would like to contribute and share in the DIY spirit - email us at diycitymag @ gmail.com
We will also bring you daily stories of DIYs from around the globe at DIY City. DIY City mag may be coming soon to a city near you. Be sure to join our DIY City community at diycityguides.ning.com to help us build the most comprehensive resource guide for DIY.
