Ceramics and mixed media are the focus at the Woodmere Annual 77th Juried Exhibition. This year’s juror, Syd Carpenter, is a professor at Swarthmore College whose work has been featured in the Smithsonian’s Renwick Gallery, among other places. She’s selected a stunning variety of work that includes the remarkable ceramics of Yinka Orafidiya and Roberto Lugo (pictured). All 75 artists are based within 50 miles of the area, giving the exhibit a regional vibe.
