Applications are now being accepted for the 2023 JRACraft Chrysalis Award. This year we will be awarding emerging artists working in the contemporary fiber field.
The Chrysalis award was created to promote and inspire US-based emerging craft artists. “Emerging” is defined as someone early in their professional artistic career, with no regard to age. Artists must have completed a four-year academic program or self-directed equivalent training within the past five (5) years. Residencies, workshops, apprenticeships and/or other dedicated practice qualify as equivalent training. Applicants may not have had a solo museum exhibition or be exclusively represented by a commercial gallery.
