The 2016 Polymer Clay Challenge

December 28, 2015 by Elaine Robitaille 2 Comments

Katie of KatersAcres is running her Polymer Clay Challenge again! I participated last year and made it about 1/2 way through fairly conscientiously. I didn’t stop claying but I did stop blogging it rigorously. I’ll try and be a little more studious this year. You can check out the Facebook group’s photo albums for a really fabulous visual record of what folks did and to post your 2016 pictures and blog links.

If any of your New Year’s goals are to improve your polymer clay skills, this is an excellent way to go about it. Doing the work is pretty much the best way to develop your style and technique with any medium. If 2016 is like 2015 there will be a mix of clay newbies and old hands. Me? What I need are Katie’s enviable organizational skills!

POP! – Perspectives on Polymer

Contemporary Craft is thrilled to be hosting POP! – Perspectives on Polymer June 25-29, 2022. A five-day celebration of contemporary work in polymer, the event will have something for everyone who loves polymer clay. POP! will feature four workshops along with virtual talks by some of the best polymer artists in the country, an exhibition of small works in polymer, and a curated feature in the Store. The opening reception will be held on Saturday, June 25, 6-8 PM, and will be free and open to the public.

POP!’s focus on workshops and the materiality of polymer makes this boutique event more than just a conference. Each participating artist was selected for their unique perspectives on polymer and the exciting ways they are moving the medium forward. The featured instructor for the event is Jeffrey Lloyd Dever, whose pioneering techniques in polymer have made him one of the most respected artists in the field. His jewelry and sculptural objects have been shown in many national invitational exhibitions, and his works are represented in numerous private collections, galleries and museums.
