TCN does not have a physical location. We are currently a LLC with fiscal sponsorship with Watershed. There is an organizational committee, called Co-Organizers, that oversees our programs. TCN does not have membership and promotes artists of color.
Being part of TCN can look like many things, such as:
Applying to open calls
Becoming a Mentor or Mentee
Joining our Email List to receive program opportunities and relevant opportunities outside TCN that fit within our mission
Engaging with TCN on Instagram
The best ways to get news and opportunities are to stay updated with our Instagram and to subscribe to our Email List. TCN organizes its exhibitions through open calls, invitational exhibitions, and juried invitationals (a mix of curation and open-call). We share open calls via our Instagram or through our Email List.
Yes! Artists working with clay, who are at any point in their careers or at any point in their journey with ceramics, can be a part of TCN. We hope to provide a context where artists working in ceramics may find resources and growth.
Each database entry consists of the artist’s name and a link to where a database visitor may view the artist’s work. Though a website is preferred, you may also provide us a link to your social media.
If you change your website domain or social media username, please notify us of the change so we may update your database link.
Are there any POC studio potters/production potters looking to host an apprentice? We have POC artists who would really like to apprentice for another POC. Maybe this is a good incentive to apply for this $10,000 grant. Please spread the word and let us know if you’re interested so we can connect you with artists that are interested.
