Art That Inspires Us, Call for Entry

Posted on by

CALLING ALL ART GUILD MEMBERS!

We are trying something a little different. Share your art collection! It can be your own work or someone else’s that you have hanging in your own home. Curate pieces that work well together and give the “exhibit” a name. Guidelines are detailed below.

AGP Members’ Art Collections Virtual Exhibition

Art That Inspires Us
June 6 – June 27

Deadline for Submission- June 2, 2020 7pm

Instructions:

1. Curate a new or showcase an existing “mini” exhibition of your own.
Assemble a few pieces of your favorite art (your own or other’s) or look anew at a single piece or current assemblage in your home or studio that inspires you. Photograph your “exhibit”.

Include your name, theme and title of your exhibition. Your theme and title can be the same (see attached example).
Theme examples: figures; sunsets
Title examples: Impossible Poses; Sunsets Beyond Orange
Add artwork information: artist name, title of artworks, medium (make sure to give credit to the artists)

2. Email your mini exhibitions as a jpeg or pdf to agp.artguild@gmail.com.

If you have trouble adding text to your photo, please include text in the body of your email and we will design for you, time permitting. If you know you will need help, please get your submission in early so that we have enough time to help, at least 24 hours required.

COVID-19 Update

Posted on by

Please check with the Sanchez Art Center to see if its galleries are currently open or closed due to shelter-in-place restrictions. By extension the Art Guild activities are also paused.

We apologize for this inconvenience, and we hope you will continue to find solace in making art at home. In the meantime we have created a Gallery page to contain virtual exhibitions for view while we are unable to visit in-person.

Continue to visit here for other ongoing member news.

Please take care of yourselves, stay healthy and enjoy each day as much as possible. We will be here, ready to show your work once again, when this ordeal is resolved.
