February/March 2018 Career Issue
For the first (and likely only) time, American Craft magazine is issuing a call for entries. We're hoping to hear from artists who'd like to be considered for coverage in our February/March 2018 Career Issue. The goal of the issue – our first ever focusing on artists' career practices – is to share tips on the sometimes tricky business of making a living as an artist. We're looking for artists who have unique guidance to offer and are willing to be forthright about their income sources.
To be considered, please send 4 to 6 images of your work along with your resume and brief answers to following questions:
- What is notable or unusual about how you pay your bills? (one sentence)
- What percentage of your income do you make from what sources? (one sentence with rough percentages – include spouse, second job, teaching, etc.)
- What's the smartest thing you've done to make your finances work? (one sentence)
With each image, please include work title, year made, materials, dimensions, and photo credits. Responses will not be published without permission; incomplete responses and those exceeding 250 words will not be considered.
Please send your response to letters@craftcouncil.org no later than Friday, September 8. The email subject line must read Feb./Mar. Career Issue. If you are chosen, you'll be notified no later than Friday, October 20.
