About
The Evelyn Peeler Peacock Gallery at The ARTS Council announces a call for artists to participate in The Fire Arts Show.
The ARTS Council invites artists from the Southern Finger Lakes and beyond to submit works celebrating the fire arts. All mediums incorporating fire arts are eligible. Examples include, but aren’t limited to Ceramics, Flameworking, Metalworking, Glass Blowing, and more.
The ARTS Council welcomes both smaller pieces and larger installations that creatively utilize the gallery space.
The Fire Arts Show will be held in conjunction with Glassfest 2023, a weekend long celebration of glass and fire arts, which welcomes thousands of visitors to the region.
