Artwork, whether depicting a well know work of literature, mythology, or more conceptual interpretation of the connections between words and images are also encouraged.<br /><br />Eligibility: All artists regardless of location are welcome to apply, including international artists.<br /><br />Submission Fee: $10 per submission.

Though the first evidence of collage coincided with the invention of paper in China around 200 BC, it was not until the early 20th century that artists first used it as a technique.<br /><br />Collage has since evolved into a popular and powerful medium that transcends traditional artistic boundaries. Versatile and accessible, collage allows for a creative amalgamation of 2- and 3-D materials, creating a fascinating visual interplay of textures, colors, and forms that explore the juxtaposition of seemingly disparate elements. From analog cut-and-paste to digital layering, this exhibition celebrates the deft use of materials and creative spirit of collage. <br /><br /><u>Awards & Prizes</u><br />There will be over $2,000 in cash and prizes for artist awards.<br /><br /><u>Eligibility</u><br />Open to all artists, 18 years of age or older.<br /><br /><u>Entry Fee</u><br />Free for new or current Bedford Gallery donors who donate $50 or more.<br />$40 non-refundable entry fee for all other applicants.<br /><br />Visit website for complete details: <a href="https://www.bedfordgallery.org/programs/artist-opportunities/call-for-entry" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">https://www.bedfordgallery.org/programs/artist-opportunities/call-for-entry</a><br /><br />Submit Application: <a href="https://bedfordgallery.slideroom.com/#/login/program/74581" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">https://bedfordgallery.slideroom.com/#/login/program/74581</a><br /><br /><br />For questions, please email galleryinfo@bedfordgallery.org<br /><br /><br />Bedford Gallery<br />Lesher Center for the Arts<br />1601 Civic Drive<br />Walnut Creek, CA 94596</p>Fiber Art Callshttp://www.blogger.com/profile/12395940257459619698noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-21335179.post-3189436639136727452024-03-06T19:55:00.000-05:002024-03-06T19:55:03.934-05:0048th Annual Philadelphia Museum of Art Craft Show<p><b>DEADLINE: April 1, 2024 (ONLINE)<br />LATE DEADLINE: April 18, 2024 (ONLINE)</b></p><p><b> </b></p><p><b>48th Annual Philadelphia Museum of Art Craft Show</b><br />Pennsylvania Convention Center<br /> Philadelphia, PA<br />November 15 - 17, 2024</p><p> </p><p>The 48th Annual Philadelphia Museum of Art Craft Show, a juried

It could involve voting, sports, education, housing, money, equal rights, abortion, criminal justice reform, etc. Imagine the beloved community and think about what issue would get you off your couch and catapult you into action. We must learn to tell our own stories, and every story is important. You may also want to read John Lewis’s book “Carry On – Reflections For a New Generation” to inform your creativity. We must learn to tell our own stories, and every story is important.</p><p>QUILT SUBMISSION DETAILS</p><p>Your quilt should not be larger than 60 inches wide.

It could be the memory of someone lost to time and their sweet reflection. Images might suggest that a person was present because of what they left behind. A portrait might be the icons that tell the story of someone's passions, their pets or their personality. Perhaps it’s how they wish to be seen and remembered. We would like to see your take on the genre of portraiture, human or animal. <br /><br /></p><p>Core New Art Space invites all artists of any mediums, 2d & 3d (except video/installations).

We invite applications from artists at any stage of their careers. This residency gives artists the gift of time, an uninterrupted period to live and work away from the stresses of daily life. Artists may choose to work in any one or more of our studios: intaglio, letterpress, papermaking, screenprinting, darkroom photography, or ceramics.<br /><br />Artists receive a thorough studio orientation and are expected to work independently, although studio staff is available to provide assistance. Deep technical assistance can be arranged for an additional fee. Artists must provide their own materials, some of which can be purchased from WSW.<br /><br />As of 2019, all workspace residencies are fully subsidized! This means that while artists are still responsible for their own travel, materials, meals, and other personal incidentals while in residence, <i><u>WSW provides housing and studio space at no cost</u></i>.</p><p></p><p><b>Application must include:</b></p>
