Workhouse International Ceramic Cup Show

This wood fired and reduction cooled sake cup, shown below, was recently selected for exhibition in "Drink This! Workhouse International Ceramic Cup Show". This exhibition will showcase ceramic drinking vessels by contemporary artists around the globe. The focus of the exhibit is on the variety of ways artists explore the cup, in functional, sculptural, traditional and non-traditional forms. Juror Sam Chung selected 70 works from over 400 submissions. This show opens Wednesday, January 8, 2014 and runs through Sunday, February 2, 2014. Workhouse Arts Center is located at 9601 Ox Road, Lorton, Virginia.
