SOUVENIRS
Nancy Wisti Grayson

How small can you work and still maintain your style?  Find out!  This national open call will feature a group of artists, and each artist will have a solo show, but there’s a catch!  The solo show will be in a box gallery that is 12” x 12” x 12”

Explorations of how fiber can be used to reflect the interweaving of community while still representing artifice, facade, pride, protection or disguise are all welcome interpretations and valid explorations during Pride month. All media welcome, made of or depicting hair.

This open call judged exhibition seeks to showcase innovative “green” eco-art works and aligns with Plastic-free July, seeking to inspire action and social change through the use of found objects, repurposed for art.

During OPAL’s Fall Fundraiser, the work by current OPAL members on the gallery walls will create a rich backdrop of creative expression, epitomizing OPAL’s mission and reflecting our unique artistic community. Artists will interpret the multiple meanings of the word ‘fashion’ - the concept of fashion, the verb to fashion, to create in your own unique style an artwork that can only be made by you and is immediately recognizable as your work.

Whether your art is inspired by the implications of quantum physics, metaphysics, spirituality, formal design or any combination we invite you to submit your abstract explorations of art to this national juried exhibition.

This open call judged exhibit asks; what are your best or strongest memories about food, or eating in community? What are your feelings about food and how can they be conveyed in an artwork to continue the long tradition of food as subject? All media welcome.

This is a group show scheduled alongside talks and professional development workshops for living artists to consider and plan their artistic legacy.
Artists and collectors also experience a pop-up Holiday Bazaar with guest vendors and month-long artists exhibiting works priced for giving.
