Help Polymer Clay Shine!

by

Bead Star is the American Idol of jewelry design contests.  Polymer clay shines in more than a few categories in this competition.  I have two designs as finalists! (pictured here)  I see there are polymer clay entries in the plastic category and one in seed bead category that caught me eye.  My work featuring polymer clay beads were in the pearl and heart category.  There may be more, but it’s hard to tell just from the photos.  Way to go polymer clay artists!

The winners are chosen by your votes and will appear in the Bead Star magazine!  Pick your favorites in each category.  Hurry, voting ends June 18th!

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.
