Fine artists and writers … take note!
Submission for Arts Fest Gallery and Literary journal is approaching! It’s time to start pulling together your work to share with the fuller community!
There are two opportunities for you starving artists out there to contribute and make yourselves known, for visual artists and writers.
VISUAL ARTISTS: This year, we have designed two galleries, a Community gallery and a Juried gallery. You have the option to contribute to either, although selections for the Juried gallery will be limited. If you submit a piece of art for the Juried gallery and it is not selected, you will be able to contribute it to the Community gallery, if you so choose. All pieces are to be submitted at the Brehm Center on the Pasadena main campus. Upon submission, you will have to fill out a small release form that grants us permission to hang your work, as well as let us know which gallery you would like to hang it in. Both galleries officially open on April 28th, the Monday of Arts Fest. Please submit all work by April 18th.
WRITERS: We are also collecting submissions for the Offerings, Fuller’s yearly publication of written and visual forms of art. If you have written pieces of poetry, fiction, prose, or if you have any visual art in digital format, or anything else you would like to submit, please send all work to the official Arts Concerns Committee email address:artsconcerns@gmail.comOnce pieces are collected, we will have a committee select pieces for this year’s Offerings. You’ll be able to pick up the Offerings during Arts Fest. Once a piece is select, we will send you a release form in order to grant us permission to publish your work. Please submit all work for the Offerings by April 11th.
The theme for this year’s Arts Fest is “From the soil,” drawing from the metaphor of the tree and connecting loosely to Fuller’s 60th anniversary celebration of looking to the past, present, and future. Feel free to contribute art that pertains to the theme, although it will not affect selection for the gallery or the Offerings.
So, for all you artist that are dying to be seen and appreciated, here’s your chance!
