Annual Student Show
Info from the Museum of Art:
This year’s Annual Student Show Reception and Awards Ceremony will begin at 7 p.m. following a special presentation by nationally recognized Mississippi artist and writer William Dunlap, 6 p.m. in Bennett Auditorium.
All students are encouraged to attend both events, and to enter works in this years student show. We really need high faculty and student participation to make these events a success.
We will begin accepting student show entries the Monday students get back from spring break. All entries (other than 3D) should be delivered to the museum between 9 a.m. and 5 p.m., Monday to Wednesday, March 14 -16. 3D works will need to be set up in the sculpture building. Works will be juried Thursday and/or Friday, 3/17- 3/18.
All entries must be ready to hang or install, please! There is simply not enough time for students to take work to have it framed or matted after the selection process; every year this is an issue and routinely creates unnecessary challenges for us to lay out and install the show. All 3D works accepted must be delivered to the museum on Monday, 3/21, unless other arrangements have been agreed upon by the student and museum directors.

Ladies Welding Gear!
It always seems we have to go to extraordinary lenghts to find welding gear that fits. This has alwasy been a drag. Spurred by a lovely pair of specialty ladies gloves one of my students brought to class I decided to do some looking around and found a cool site Weldfabulous that has a great section with gear specially for Women Welders!
Weldfabulous not only has ladies gear, it has all manner of gear and tools for anyone who loves being in the shop. Check out the wide variety of selections from tools to safety gear.
Later!

Some Places to Find Shows
There are a ton of art exhibition and competition listings out there on the Internet, all you have to do is search for them, Check out ARTshow.com.
Here is a link to an interesting exhibition, FIRED A View of Ceramics
at Manifest Gallery
This show is open to all including students and they will publish a catalog (bonus!). Deadlines are approaching fast!
Some sites like The Art List, have free listings and some pay-for-membership levels as well.
Also check out- The Art Guide, ArtPerk, Art and Artdeadlines. My favorite is ArtDeadlines.com, but you have to pay for the good stuff and I think it's worth it.
