Entries for the Open Ceramics Awards are due in 8 days time!
We are excited to announce that our Judge for 2020 is none other than Greg Barron, esteemed Northland artist. We are happy that Greg agreed to be on board this year, and being local to Whangarei means the event can go ahead despite Covid-19 travel restrictions if we have them at that time.
There are two categories of “Best Open Masters” and “Best Emerging” (first time entering a National Show). Applications go through an initial selection round with photographic images only. Selected participants will be notified by 5 October, with an invitation to deliver the physical works for the competition by 23rd October. Judging will happen on 5th November, with the official announcements and opening 5.30pm Friday 6th November.

Poll: Do you think banning gang patches is reasonable?
With the government cracking down on gangs, it is now illegal for gang members to display their insignia in public places whether through clothing or their property.
This means arrests can be made if these patches are worn in places like restaurants, shops, on public transport or ferries, and on airplanes. Arrests were made recently at a funeral.
