I am sending these two platters to Long Beach Island, NJ for a National Juried exhibition titled "Plates, Platters, and Nothing Else Matters." I'm so excited that Garth Johnson selected two of my platters for the exhibition! Can't wait to see more photos from the exhibition. If you're in the area please stop by before July 20, 2017.
The Long Beach Island Foundation of the Arts and Sciences is pleased to announce a call to artists for our “Plates, Platters, and Nothing Else Matters” exhibition. “Plates, Platters, Nothing Else Matters” is a National Juried Competition of ceramic works that are ready to be wall hung. The deadline for submission is May 1st, 2017. Our juror, Garth Johnson, will select approximately 75 works for our exhibition.

The Long Beach Island Foundation of the Arts & Sciences (LBIF) was established in 1948 as a non-profit institution by artist Boris Blai to provide arts and educational opportunities to the surrounding communities. Blai, a sculptor and founding Dean of Tyler School of Art, Temple University, had a vision that through exceptional art exhibitions, classes, and cultural activities the LBIF could provide visitors an opportunity to experience and share quality arts and cultural programming. For more than sixty-eight years the LBIF has delivered this mission through its Exhibition programs, Visiting Artists programs, Artist Residency and Retreat Program.
