Is Something Bugging You?

from Bug Swap 2006

Well, if it’s bugging you that you haven’t participated in a polymer clay swap for a while, or you haven’t participated in one yet, and you’re a fan of creepy, crawly, or flying critters with six legs, I’ve got some good news for you!

I got word, just this morning, that Connie Pelkey is planning on hosting another bug swap this year. The due date for your buggies will be sometime in March, although the details have not yet been hashed out. If you are interested, you can visit Connie at her blog and send her an email to let her know:

Participating in swaps is a great way to get your creative juices flowing, as well as collect polymer clay creations from other artists!

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.
