Kilnforming in the Upper Midwest Exhibition Open Call

Kilnforming in the Upper Midwest is a juried exhibition celebrating contemporary kilnformed glass by artists living and working in Minnesota, Wisconsin, & Iowa. The exhibition highlights the creative breadth and technical innovation of kiln-based glass practices across the region.

Foci Minnesota Center for Glass Arts invites artists to submit glass artwork created using kilnforming processes, including but not limited to fusing, slumping, casting, pâte de verre, and experimental kiln techniques. Both functional and sculptural works are welcome. Submissions should demonstrate a strong command of material, concept, and process.

Guest Juror & Minnesota-based glass casting artist Donna Rice will be reviewing applications.
