Manchester: Ars Ornata Europeana Student Competition
Ars Ornata Europeana is a major biennial European celebration of contemporary jewellery. Held for the first time in the UK this year 5 - 8 July 2007, AOE will offer a most exciting programme of exhibitions and events. Aimed at jewellers, artists, curators, gallery owners and speakers from across Europe and beyond, it is the perfect venue to establish new contacts and network in a relaxed and friendly atmosphere. The theme for 2007, INSIDE OUT, encourages a search across disciplines for new and fascinating inspiration and offers a forum for dialogue and discussion.

Participants are required to design and make a brooch in any material not to exceed 100 x 100 x 100 mm. Prizes will be awarded to the best pieces. Delegates to the conference will choose their favourite and visitors to the Craft Centre can contribute to the people's choice. So come down and choose your favourite!
