Don't Miss Your Opportunity: Nominate a Craft Artist for Arkansas Living Treasure
The deadline for nominations for the 2010 Arkansas Living Treasure is quickly approaching. The postmarked deadline is Friday, Dec. 11.
The Arkansas Living Treasure designation is presented annually to recognize an Arkansan who is outstanding in the creation of a traditional craft and has significantly contributed to the preservation of the art form. Nominations of artists who work in traditional craft forms such as pottery, weaving, broom making, leatherworking, metalsmithing and wood carving are encouraged.
An independent panel of practicing craft artists will select the recipient based on the following criteria: quality of work, community outreach and total contribution to the field of traditional crafts. The recipient will be honored in May 2010 during Arkansas Heritage Month.
The nomination forms are available at http://www.arkansasarts.org/. For more information, contact Sally A. Williams, artist services manager, at (501) 324-9348 or email sally at arkansasheritage.org.
