This is an open call to all artists worldwide to submit works that creatively interpret Southern California’s iconic culture. The juried exhibition of original work is an exploration of the popular fascination with the celebrated lifestyle, influences, and environs of Southern California. Artists are requested to submit two-dimensional artworks of any medium that reflect the culture and lifestyle of Southern California as they have directly experienced or imagine it to be.

In addition to the selected artworks from the juried competition, there will be five artworks that will be included in the traveling exhibition by special invitation of the jurors. These five pieces will embody and reflect the vision of California Dreaming: An International Portrait of Southern California and will further enhance the scholarship and strength of this traveling exhibition.

The mission of Oceanside Museum of Art is to educate and inspire the public through a diverse range of engaging exhibitions and programs that connect people with regional, as well as national and global, artists and art forms of the 20th and 21st centuries.
