from our current Selection Chair Susan Wright-Cassan also known as Woodnewe on Facebook and Instagram,
Are you interested in becoming a member of Artisans Northwest of Thunder Bay? Over the years, Artisans Northwest has grown to be Thunder Bay's largest and longest running juried art and fine craft organization and is governed by a constitution. Artisans Northwest provides a professional outlet for more than 80 artisans with one major show each year.
We are always looking for new members who create unique and quality work. Before membership is offered to you, a Selection Committee must jury your work to ensure that the work meets the standards of creativity, originality, and workmanship.
If your work is accepted, you will be offered membership into Artisans Northwest. We also require in your first year as a member that you participate in our Artisans Northwest Art and Fine Craft Show, which is held annually in November. (this year is our 50th Anniversary!) Once you have completed the Membership Application Form and paid your annual membership fee, your membership is then activated.
Membership is renewed annually. Once you are a member, you do not have to have your products juried again unless you wish to submit work in a different medium, add new products that are substantially different from the current ones, or you do not renew your membership and wish to reapply at a later date.
Please take the time to review the information on our website, under the JOIN - May 26, 2025 tab, and do not hesitate to contact me directly if you have any questions or concerns.
We look forward to meeting you and seeing your work on May 26, 2025, at 6:30pm at the Fireside Room at the Valhalla Inn and Conference Centre.
