Deadline: May 11, 2007

Five artists will be selected for solo exhibitions in the spring and fall of 2008.

The selected artists will have between 6 and 12 months to develop their ideas and to create new work for the project. The installation period is two days for most slots so the project needs to be installed and de-installed quickly.
A meet-the-artist gallery talk will be scheduled for each artist.
The selected artists will receive an honorarium of $1,500.
Eligibility:
Open to emerging artists with a record of solid achievement and potential, for whom this opportunity might contribute to professional advancement; and who are not represented by a commercial gallery, not student, and have not previously shown at Wave Hill.

Each needleart is a specific category you can enter, along with our extra category of Baseball Team Theme Design, where we encourage you to show your love for your favorite participating baseball team in the Stitch N' Pitch lineup! But that's not all — we know it's all about DIY and sharing the love, so all winners will have their project how-to's posted up in our special Stitch N' Pitch section on craftzine.com.

Wicked and Wise
Deadline: June 1, 2007 (Postmark)
Wicked and Wise
Clara M. Eagle Gallery
Murray State University
August 22 - September 20, 2007
For centuries myths, legends, and fairy tales have delighted the imagination with enchanted worlds where both the good and the wicked reside. These moral tales, rich in symbolism, social criticism, and dark humor--inspire fantastical visions with their colors, textures, and characters.
Wicked and Wise is an exhibition open to artists exploring issues common in traditional and contemporary tales including folklore, ghost stories, comic books, urban legends, and tall tales. Notions of the courageous heroine--the evil villain, deception, betrayal, magic, adventure, and everlasting hope are just a few ideas open for investigation.
The Clara M. Eagle Gallery at Murray State University in Murray, KY will host the exhibition. All members of Mid America Print Council -MAPC-are eligible to apply. (Membership form may accompany application).
Submissions may include work in any media. Artists are encouraged to be creative in their interpretation of the theme.
Each artist is limited to three entries. The work must be original, completed recently, and not previously shown in the Eagle Gallery.
Size restrictions: pieces must fit on a freight elevator, call for exact dimensions.
An artist statement will be requested from all accepted artists.
Fee: Non-refundable entry fee of $25.00 US per artist for three entries.
