Becoming a Member 2011
Applicants for membership must submit a completed application along with images of their work for review by the Jury Committee. If the application meets our requirements, you will be invited to submit samples of your work for a hands-on evaluation by the Jury Committee.
During the evaluation applicants will attend an Orientation Session with our Show Director. Applicants not accepted for membership are given advice on how to improve their work and will be offered a chance to mentor with a current member.
To be eligible to apply, one must be a resident of Vermont. The jurors are looking for work which has a high level of craftsmanship. All work must be original and made by hand or with the use of appropriate tools. The work must function well, show proficiency, quality, consistency, knowledgeable use of materials, and artistic potential.
This year’s membership application is now available! Please download the form below, complete the application and mail it in. Applications which are complete and postmarked by March 15, 2011, will be considered for the April hands-on jury. Complete applications received later will be considered for the September hands-on jury.
