Guilford Art Center invites artists to apply for participation in Craft Expo 2014.

Artist work is juried from digital images, and must be of high quality, be well-designed, and convey artistic originality and vision. Event benefits Guilford Art Center’s educational programs.

Craft Expo 2014, held on the scenic and historic Guilford Green, is a high-quality, outdoor juried show featuring contemporary crafts from 180 artists, in a variety of media including glass, clay, leather, jewelry, fiber arts, wood, paper, and metal.
