2012 SAC Artist Awards ABOUT THE SAC ARTIST AWARDS Initiated in 1994, the Artist Awards encourage and support the work of New England craft artists who demonstrate a mastery of their media and create original and innovative work. A panel of jurors will select three artists to receive a $3,000 cash award; winners will participate in a group exhibition at SAC's Newbury Street gallery from April to June 2012. One of the three awards is funded by the John D. Mineck Foundation and earmarked for a furniture maker. ELIGIBILITY The awards are open to craft artists working in clay, fiber, glass, metal, wood, or mixed media.
