We are looking for submissions that showcase the best of your work. This can be art made in a glass studio class, outside of class using techniques learned in a class at BARN, and work made during BARN’s open studios, or by artists associated with BARN in their own studios. We welcome unique individual work and similar
work made by several students from one class displayed as a group of multiples.
We are very interested in collaborations –multi-studio work or work by artists collaborating across BARN’s studios. Note that this one-day show also coincides with BARN’s annual Collaborations exhibit, running from Oct. 11 – Jan. 2
