| designing women has grown over the years to include many women in New England. Our jury system has evolved into one that works very well in sustaining a core group while including new, fresh artists and their work. Each show includes members, guests, and new invited guests. You can see who is on our membership list (including guests) by using the drop down list to the left. Invited Guests are not listed but are included in our handbook. You can download a PDF of that here.
Current members please note- if you are working in a new category (i.e.- juried for woven clothing, now making rugs or juried for pottery now making jewelry) you must go through the application process again. As an organization, we strive to provide the best selling environments for our members. With over 90 members and 6 shows, we feel it necessary to limit the amount of members in any one category. We strongly urge anyone intending to apply for membership in the categories of jewelry and fiber to look at our current members in those areas. We are all unique artists but we have similarities. If you feel your work is significantly different than any jeweler or fiber artist who exhibits with us, please do apply. However, in our effort to serve our members best, we will be very diligent in our decision making process in those areas. We are all appreciative of this effort. If you are interested in exhibiting at our shows, you can apply to be juried next year. We have a downloadable application. The packet includes a cover letter, application, photo description sheet. There is a $15. application fee. Many categories are closed to membership but still open for Invited Guests. Meanwhile, please attend one of our shows so that you can be comfortable your work will fit within our guidelines.
The deadline for application has passed. If you have applied this year, you will be notified by March 1.
Thank you for your interest. The forms for 2009 will be available in the fall. |
