Woman Made Gallery is celebrating the grand opening of
our Artisan Gallery. WMG's new venue is an alternative
to the gallery's juried thematic exhibitions, offering
expanded exhibiting, marketing and selling
opportunities to women artists and artisans whose body
of work is primarily functional and/or decorative, or
is unconcerned with pursuing content or a narrative.
We are looking for fine crafts in all media and forms
except clothing: glass, clay, wood, fiber,
mixed-media, metals and jewelry, paper (no drawing or
painting) for a series of exhibitions.
The exhibition time and length will coincide with the
Woman Made galleries schedule which changes every 4 to
5 weeks. There will be a Featured Artist section with
each exhibition. An artist will be asked to submit a
small body of work for display and she will be
featured on the Woman Made website. We will also
consider thematic ideas appropriate to craft media,
possibly to coincide with the current Woman Made
gallery exhibit theme; or explorations into materials
or techniques.
We are reviewing work for the following exhibitions:
May 20 – June 16th 2005 Works in Clay Deadline:
May 6th
June 24 – July 21 2005 Open theme all craft
media. Submission Deadline: June 3rd

September 2 – 29 2005 The Nature of Paper. Works of

Woman Made Gallery is a non-profit 501(c)(3)
organization that was established to work for the
equal placement of women's art in the world. Woman
Made Gallery supports and cultivates the diverse
contributions of women artists through exhibitions,
educational programs and community outreach. We
believe that such contributions are an essential
component in the spectrum of cultural expression.
