NCECA National Juried Student Exhibition 2023
The DAAP Galleries are proud to present the 2023 National Juried Student Exhibition in conjunction with The National Council on Education for the Ceramic Arts. The 2023 NCECA NJSE will run concurrently with Current, the 57th annual conference for NCECA in Cincinnati, Ohio, March 15–18, 2023. This exhibition was juried from a call for work from students who have been pursuing a degree or post-baccalaureate within the last 12 months. The exhibition is juried by ceramic artists Wesley Brown and Natalia Arbelaez.
NCECA is a dynamic, non-profit organization that engages and sustains a community for ceramic art, teaching, and learning. In addition to deepening knowledge within the field, NCECA expands it by working to cultivate the next generation of ceramic artists and enthusiasts through programing that hopes to engage the wider community. Comprised of approximately 4,000 members from the United States and more than 20 foreign countries, NCECA reaches thousands more each year.
