- CLAY
“Clay” is the theme for all three of Zenclay’s exhibits during March. The “Four States Ceramics Exhibition,” the first juried-in exhibit for Zenclay, is in the Clay Gallery. The photography exhibit in the Cafe highlights the process of clay from throwing on the wheel to pieces being fired in the gas kiln that is located at the edge of the Zenclay’s parking lot. The dates for these two exhibits are March 3 through April 11 with the Artists Reception on Saturday, March 8, 6:30 – 8:30 pm.
An Invitational WVU Alumni Pottery Show will open in the Upstairs Gallery on March 14 and run through April 11. The Artists Reception will be on Sunday, March 16, 5:30 – 7:30 pm.
These exhibitions were planned to coincide with the 42nd Annual Clay Convention of the National Council on Education for the Ceramics Arts (NCECA) in Pittsburgh, March 19-22, 2008, and with the pre-conference symposium at WVU, March 15-17.
