Ruth Borchard Self-Portrait Competition and Exhibition
Deadline: April 30, 2013 (RECEIVE)
Ruth Borchard Self-Portrait Competition and Exhibition
Kings Place Gallery
London, England
21 June – 22 September 2013
The 2013 Ruth Borchard Self-Portrait Competition is intended to reflect and celebrate the traditions which inform the Borchard Collection by encouraging the development of these ideas into British art of the twenty-first century.
Entrants must submit a self-portrait, but this concept is open to an interpretation that goes beyond passport-photo conventionality. Shown alone or within a group, contextualised, abstracted, trailing narrative or defined by the surface of the image, like all self-portraits, these new additions to the genre will explore the idea of visual identity, revealing and designing it at the same time.
An exhibition of works selected from the competition entries will be held at Kings Place Gallery, Kings Place, London, from 21 June – 16 August 2013, when details of the winning entry will be announced. Selected works will tour to the University Gallery, Northumbria University, Newcastle upon Tyne from 30 August – 11 October 2013.
Entry fee: £15
ELIGIBILITY
● Artists of amateur and professional status, living and working in the UK, are eligible to participate in the competition by submitting a digital image of their self-portrait.
● The work can be in any recognised medium including drawing, painting, watercolour, print and mixed media. Photographs, sculpture and film are not eligible.
● All works selected for exhibition must be framed and must not measure more than 100 x 100cm, including the size of the frame.
● All works must be for sale and include the Gallery’s 40% commission in the sale price.
● Artists who are VAT registered will have VAT added to their sale price.
● Entry Forms must be accompanied by a digital image of the work, which should be on CD, in JPEG format at 300dpi resolution.
● CDs should contain only the image file, which must be individually accessible. Hard copies are not acceptable. Each CD must be clearly marked with the artist’s name and address.
First Prize £10,000
SELECTION
● All entries will be considered by a Selection Panel (made up of artists, critics and curators) and applicants will be notified by post or email whether their work has been selected for exhibition or not. The decision of the Selection Panel is final and no correspondence will be entered into on the matter. The prize will be available for award at the discretion of the Selection Panel.

Scotts Bluff Valley Fiber Arts Fair
Deadline: July 1, 2013 (RECEIVE)
Scotts Bluff Valley Fiber Arts Fair
Scotts Bluff County Fairgrounds
Mitchell, Nebraska
September 14, 2013
We will host a one-day event at the Fairgrounds that will incorporate our vendors, animals, and demonstrators all in one space. We request that each selected vendor provide one $25.00 item for a silent auction that raises money for the fair, and one $25.00 item to be used as a door prize during the fair.
Booth space is limited and jury selection will be used to determine the final mix of vendors. If selected, vendor packets will be sent out with detailed information and guidelines.
Brown Sheep Company and Barn Anew Bed and Breakfast are teaming up to host a celebration of all things fiber. We will offer a fully interactive experience with educational demonstrations on Saturday. Some of the demonstrations will represent these subjects: knitting, spinning, crocheting, weaving, needle felting, rug hooking, quilting, hands-on projects for children and adults, locally and regionally-produced goods for sale, art work, fiber art supplies, informational resources, and animals on display that produce the natural fibers we love.
A silent auction, door prizes, and new demonstrations will make this fair full of activity for men, women, and children of all ages.
