Call for Artists!
The Tri-State Art Guild in cooperation with the Friends of Angel Mounds, is sponsoring a double exhibit of works by local and area artists. The shows juxtaposition each other; The Really BIG Show and The Really Tiny Show both run concurrently from June 6-August 6, 2010. And not to forget, both of these shows are juried (which means there are awards) and each show has their own. Don’t forget that the entry deadline to mail or email artwork information is May 29.
If you are interested in just how much you stand to win if you enter, see each show’s perspectus at www.tri-stateartguild.org/events
For artists working in large formats, this is the perfect opportunity to exhibit your work. Minimum size is 24″ x 36″ and max size is 6′ x 8′. I’m not sure how one would transport art that is the max size, but we will accept it if you can get it there. And if the subject matter passes the criteria, ie. no nudes! Just remember that this is a “family” place and there will be lots of kids going through the exhibit so be thoughtful when entering.
On the other hand, the really tiny show is just that. Very small works with a max size of 12″ x 14″ and min size of 4″ x 6″. What is really nice for artists is that they can enter both shows for a one time fee of $15.00 + membership dues if they are not already a member. That is 4 pieces total. Two in each show! I would call that a bargain in this day and age. Where else could you find such a deal? Only the Tri-State Art Guild, that’s where. We are an independent artist organization dedicated to serving our members, not taking their money.
For new members that are entering for the first time, you be able to enter our shows for the next full year from the date you apply and most of our exhibits are free to enter! We can’t wait to hear from you!
