TOPICAL DISCUSSIONS / NCECA CONNECTIONS
GENERAL INFORMATION about TOPICAL DISCUSSIONS and NCECA CONNECTIONS
“NCECA 2010-entitled INDEPENDENCE--celebrates the individual and the choices they make. An independent spirit is necessary to tear down existing walls, to explore new ideas and to create work that pushes conventional understanding of one medium. An independent spirit is also necessary to maintain tradition, to be bound loosely by historical precedent and function. NCECA 2010 celebrates the independent spirits of traditionalists and ground breakers.”
NCECA is seeking a diverse group of leaders from its membership that will appeal to our conference attendees. Students (Undergraduate, Post-Bac, Graduate), Studio Artists, Educators (K-12, Community College, University), Gallerists, Curators, etc. are all encouraged to apply!
