NCECA 2025 Gallery Expo will occur in conjunction with the 59th Annual NCECA Conference on March 26–29, 2025, in Salt Lake City, Utah. The Gallery Expo will open with a preview reception on Tuesday evening, March 25, 2025, and continue through Friday afternoon, March 28th, 2025. The Gallery Expo is CLOSED on Saturday.
NCECA is dedicated to promoting inclusion, equity, accessibility, and diversity within the ceramic arts. Applicants for the Gallery Expo are strongly encouraged to submit a diverse list of artists representing historically marginalized communities and a variety of experiences, backgrounds, voices, and identities. This includes, but is not limited to, diversity in race, ethnicity, gender, gender identity, sexuality, disability, class, and age.
Representatives and artists from participating galleries will be scheduled to make brief presentations illuminating the creation process and the joy of collecting and using contemporary ceramic works by contemporary makers. The galleries involved create a unique opportunity to experience and purchase works that might not be available in the conference region.
Gallery Expo features displays of unique works in clay presented by galleries from across the United States and abroad. Works in this showcase may be functional, decorative, or sculptural and should be available for purchase by collectors. A committee will select the galleries to participate based on the quality of submissions and alignment with programmatic goals and objectives.
The goals of the Gallery Expo are to:
– Make contemporary ceramic art available for purchase at the heart of NCECA’s Annual Conference.
– Provide a point of intersection, exchange, and learning between artists attending the annual conference and galleries.
– Provide a space to appreciate and purchase contemporary ceramic art in the convention center hosting the annual NCECA conference.
