Glücksburg Palace, Römhild, Germany, 14-August – 11-September 2011
Drawing its theme from the famous dictum of panta rhei (“everything flows”), attributed to the Greek philosopher, Heraclitus, the Ninth International Ceramics Symposium will take place in the Thuringian pottery city of Römhild in 2011. Some 160 artists from 29 countries have taken part in the previous, highly regarded eight symposia.
Organized by the Association for the Advancement of the International Symposium Römhild e.V, it is supported by government, well-known business sponsors and individuals in public life.
Guidelines for Participants:
Participation will be limited to eight national and/or international artists, who will be selected from the applicants by a knowledgeable jury of experts.
Selected participant will receive maximum stipends of 2.000 Euros as well as lodging and meals during the symposium. Materials and technical equipment will be placed at their disposal and will include electrical, wood-burning, and gas kilns. It is assumed that the participants also will conduct firing experiments to further the creation of new forms of expression.
All work at the end of the symposium will remain the property of the Association for the Advancement of the International Ceramics Symposium Römhild e.V. These artistic creations will be on view to the public in the exhibition halls and featured in a catalog of the exhibition.
Selected works will be displayed in the permanent ceramics collection of the Glücksburg Palace Museum in Römhild which already contains an extensive array of work from the previous symposia.
The deadline for applications is October 21, 2010.
Applicants should submit an application that includes 10 – 15, preferably high-definition photographs of their work on a CD-Rom, a description of their past work and other exhibitions in which they have participated, as well as a vita.

Sturt Craft Centre invites applications from experienced craft practitioners to the Sturt Artist-in-Residence program. Residencies occur in the disciplines of ceramics, jewellery, textiles, wood, photography and writing. Four to six residencies occur at Sturt each year.
From late 2009, Sturt widened the focus of its residency program to encourage small scale production and individually designed work which will be promoted through Sturt Gallery. Each year, four professional residencies will be awarded to applicants specifically to develop a body of work which can be produced and made at Sturt, during the Residency time. Sturt sees the residency program as an important adjunct to its overall aim of support for Australian contemporary craft and design through a program of teaching, retail, exhibition and residencies. The emphasis of the residency program will be to support craftspeople and designer-makers who are sympathetic to this philosophy. All Residency Programs are assisted financially from Friends of Sturt, a volunteer support group which meets regularly to help with events at Sturt, produces a newsletter and raises money through its membership fees. Three categories of residency are available:

Since 1999 the Crafts Lives oral history project has been recording in-depth life stories with Britain’s craftspeople, exploring both their personal and their working lives. The project has encompassed British studio crafts such as pottery, glass, metalwork, jewellery, furniture, textiles and book arts (excluding rural crafts), which have traditionally suffered from a paucity of documentation and research.
National Life Stories (NLS) is now seeking to recruit a full-time oral history interviewer to add more recordings to this important collection. The oral history interviewer will co-ordinate, initiate, research and carry out a series of digital oral history interviews averaging 8-10 hours each, for deposit with the British Library. The postholder will be expected to carry out between 12 and 18 complete interviewers in a 12 month period.
This is a freelance fee-paid consultancy involving a package of 250 days’ work at a daily rate of £98, working on a flexible basis for a period up to 18 months. All travel and other out-of-pocket expenses will be met by NLS. Hot desk office space is available at NLS’s offices at the BL’s St Pancras building but home-based access to a PC with internet access is required. The post will be an integral part of the BL’s oral history team.
