An invitational exhibition will be hosted by the Meridian Museum of Art, starting on October 7, and will be open to the public until November 26.
The opening reception for the invitational will be at the museum with keynote speaker Malcolm White (Former Director of the Mississippi Arts Commission) 

This is a great opportunity to buy some of the best artwork from artists who are invited from different parts of the United States, as well as a few from abroad. 
These artists will show works in which they created diverse subjects, working techniques and clay mediums.
The show will collaborate and exchange information between artists, collectors, and passionate art admirers. It will operate as a tool to educate college and school students. 
We strive to bring high quality ceramic art by nationally and internationally renowned ceramic artists to Meridian and we trust people from around Mississippi will make an effort to attend this show.  

It is the beginning of a journey in which contemporary ceramics will be featured in The Meridian Museum of Art.
