For nearly 70 years, Contemporary Crafts Museum & Gallery has made a significant impact on the American craft movement from its quiet location in the historical Lair Hill neighborhood in Portland. Having outgrown the size of its first home, and also with the intention of becoming a more visible and accessible destination, the organization is preparing for a big move in July 2007. Its new site — poised between Portland's Pearl District and Oldtown/Chinatown on the North Park Blocks — promises to be a vital hub for art lovers and collectors interested in craft.
As part of this exciting change, the Sales Gallery at Contemporary Crafts will position itself as the prime destination to buy quality craft in the Pacific Northwest. The very best examples of contemporary craft will be available for purchase.
Contemporary Crafts Museum & Gallery invites professional artists from North America who are working in craft media (ceramic, fiber, wood, glass or metal) or using traditional craft techniques to submit documentation of their work to be considered for inclusion.
Complete submission materials must be received by: 5 pm on February 1, 2007.
This is not a postmark deadline.
