Please join us to celebrate the work of twenty accomplished Craft Professional members in the Craft Ontario ’17 biennial juried exhibition.

Craft Ontario ’17 surveys the work of members across the province, and presents the very best of contemporary craft. Since 1975 Craft Ontario has supported the development of contemporary craft through juried exhibitions of member work, and during this year’s Opening Reception, the recipients of the following awards will be announced: Award of Excellence, $750; Best in Show, $500; and Honourable Mention, $250. The exhibition includes a diverse collection of work that ranges from delicate ceramic sculpture to mid-century inspiredfurniture. Jewellery pieces feature designs in Washi paper and Mylar, glass is incorporated into narrative installations, and fibre is explored through textured wall hangings and figurative sculpture. Juried by Gordon Thompson (Sheridan College Craft & Design Program) and Chung-Im Kim (OCAD University Material Art & Design Program).
