Current Calls for Artists
David Zeve Gallery for Regional Artists Open Call
Contemporary Craft (CC) welcomes ongoing proposals for exhibitions in its newly established David Zeve Gallery for Regional Artists. This opportunity offers a free exhibition space for artists, curators and collectives to showcase craft-centric projects, providing both a platform and support throughout the process.
Submissions should engage with craft medium and research, though this definition is intentionally broad — proposals may include installations, performances, and other interdisciplinary approaches that highlight the creative diversity of the contemporary craft field. Proposals will be reviewed on a rolling basis by Yu-San Cheng, Director of Visual Engagement of Contemporary Craft.
Artist Instructors
The Studio offers three semesters annually of day, evening and weekend classes in contemporary and traditional craft media for adults and teens. Our instructors include university professors, internationally known visiting artists, and production studio craftsmen. The Studio’s primary focus on distinctive offerings developed around four key themes: urban experience, artist and process, art and the environment, and crossing cultural boundaries deepens the organization’s craft niche, and strengthens ties to our exhibitions of work by national and international artists for a complete educational experience.
Artist instructors interested in sharing their enthusiasm and expertise with students in The Studio are asked to provide a class proposal, samples of your work, and references. Instructors must possess excellent organizational, communication, and teaching skills.
For more information or to submit materials, please contact the Education Department at studio@contemporarycraft.org.
