Hello,

 

The Wayne Art Center would greatly appreciate it if you could include our upcoming exhibitions Craft Forms 2016  and Making Marks and associated events in your events listings or feature articles. Craft Forms is internationally recognized as one of the premiere contemporary craft exhibitions, supporting the Center’s mission of expanding the public’s awareness of fine contemporary crafts, and significantly benefiting all educational and outreach programs for children and adults. This year’s juror, Stefano Catalani of the Gage Academy, selected 89 artists with a collection of 101 cutting edge and noteworthy craft pieces from approximately 400 artwork submissions by hundreds of artists from around the world. 

 

Attached are the press release and images of artworks for both shows. Please let me know if you have any questions or require any further information. 

 

Thank you very much,

 

Anna O’Neill
