OBJECTIVE
It has been 5000 years since “SILVER” appeared in human history. A great number of people within that time have placed their value and happiness in the special attributes of Silver. This competition has been held since 2000 for Art Clay instructors, and was opened to general artists in 2002 so that contestants could present to the world their limitless ideas regarding the “Joy of Creativity” when working and creating with Art Clay Silver. In 2010, we celebrate the 11th contest, and have counted a total of 5,119 submissions in the past 10 years of the contest.
