May 4 – June 16, 2024
Galusha Gallery
Exhibition opening: Friday, May 3, 6 – 8 pm
Applications due: March 15, 5 pm CT
In addition to Members Exhibition in the main gallery, 2024 brings the return of the special opportunity to amplify the critical and highly-impactful work by the K-12 educators and students in our community. Much like the show in the main gallery, Members Exhibition: K-12 Educators and Students will be juried. There will be an in-person exhibition, featuring work by selected applicants, as well as an online exhibition including the work of all applicants.
Applicants need NOT be members to apply to this exhibition. Northern Clay Center will award one-year Education Memberships to all K-12 students and educators who apply for the exhibition.

Important info
The educator/student-artists are responsible for all shipping/transportation to and from NCC. Please note that the show is going to end after most school calendars, so create a plan with students for the pick up and return of works in the live exhibition. This exhibition will be juried. Members can submit up to two images of one piece that was created during the past two years. The work accepted for the exhibition MUST be the work submitted to the jury for consideration. Please only submit a work that has not been previously exhibited at NCC. Due to space constraints, and a desire to include as many members as possible, we must limit the size of any individual piece to 36” x 36” x 36”.
One note regarding photos for the K-12 Educators and Students application: NCC knows time and resources are stretched thin in an education setting. While we recognize that creating a photograph of one’s work may present an additional teaching opportunity and skill-building exercise, we do not require professional-level images for jury consideration. While it should be considered that these are the images that will be used for the online exhibition, the quality of the images will in no way impact the jury process.
Please email us at nccinfo@northernclaycenter.org with questions about the exhibition or application process. We are happy to help!
