Does anyone have any suggestions for finding out how and where to submit work for exhibitions, competitions, etc.? I'm not talking about craft shows, per se, but exhibits where you send 1 or 2 pieces, similar to the shows profiled in the Fall AAW Journal.

I'm sure some of these are by invitation only, but what about the open competition shows?

Thanks.
 
I subscribed to Crafts Report for several years and they almost never have anything for woodturning or for that matter even sculpture in which woodturning would be applicable. They have an awful lot for fiber, ceramics and glass and some sculptural or themed based competitions.
I will be interested to see what's out there as well
