The Annual Cedar High Student Art Show is right around spring break each year, so plan ahead to get your submissions in. Please have your pieces titled, priced, framed, glazed and both credit tags filled out a week BEFORE the show. 

Please use the link(s) below to fill out the credit tag information and artist statements. Make sure that you are in the right tab for your category before editing. After filling out the tag, write your name and tag number on tape that you attach to the bottom of your ceramic piece.

Sculptural Ceramics Category

Functional Ceramics Category 

You should fill this out AND make sure that the info is attached to your piece on a 2nd SEPARATE CREDIT TAG that you get from Mr Wainwright or Mr Stacey. 

We will print out the display credit tags on cardstock and match them to identifying tags attached to your work, but if there's nothing on the back of or underneath your piece, we may not know where to put your credit tag. We'll spend a day setting up and placing credit tags and then any untagged work will be taken out of the show before judging and official opening. The show is open for about week and a half.  

The Art on Cedar Mountain Festival is held in September each year at the SUU cabin up Cedar Canyon. It is $10 to enter and you must get permission to miss a day of school. Art is made on site in 3-4 hours and then judged, awards given out, and we return home. You will need to bring your own lunch. There is a limit of entries per school, so the first to get fees paid and permission slips signed, get to go. There should be a sign up sheet on the bulletin board outside Mr Wainwright's (ceramics room) door. (Wed September 28th 2022 )

The National K-12 Ceramic Exhibition is an annual juried ceramic competition for Kindergarten through Grade 12 (K-12) students in the United States. Designed to showcase the best K12 ceramic work made in the country, the exhibition takes place in a different city each year in conjunction with the annual conference of The National Council on Education for the Ceramic Arts (NCECA). The NCECA conference is the preeminent ceramic event in the US annually, gathering professionals from universities, colleges, museums, art galleries and the ceramic arts world to a host city to view exhibitions, demonstrations, talks and other ceramic events. For that week, the host city is the world capital of ceramics.

Jurors for The National K-12 Ceramic Exhibition are selected from the top rank of American ceramic artists and their decisions are final. Teachers from around the nation submit images of student ceramic work to the juror. Winning students are selected and have their work shipped to the host city for the exhibition. A beautiful poster, catalog, and CD are produced each year with the names and work of the winning students. All winning students and their teacher receive a poster and catalog. Scholarships and awards are also presented to many of the winners.

The exhibition attendance exceeded 6,000 in Baltimore in 2005. The best work in our exhibition is consistently judged to be better than undergraduate and much of the graduate work produced nationwide. What has been so surprising, and what draws such large crowds every year, is the simple showcase reality: that young people who have learned the basics of ceramics can express themselves as well, if not better, than people much older and more mature.

Each year since inception this national exhibition has improved in quality and the number of students involved. 

The exhibition is open to all students in the K-12 setting from all walks of life.
