CALL FOR ARTISTS
2017 Winter/Spring Show
The Paul Nigra Center for Creative Arts
Show Dates: February 2, 2017 – April 19, 2017
Exhibition Details
The Paul Nigra Center for Creative Arts is seeking submissions for its latest juried show. The 2017 Winter/Spring Show at the Paul Nigra Center for Creative Arts will showcase art that explores the theme of “Elements.” The elements of art and design are just as crucial to the human experience as the elements in science and nature. While the elements in science and nature form the building blocks of our world, making life possible, the elements of art and design govern how we perceive and interact with it, making life beautiful. For this exhibition, we invite artists of all kinds to submit pieces that explore what “Elements” means to them. The interpretations of the theme are as limitless as the things we see and experience every day.
All works must be submitted via the website www.OnlineJuriedShows.com.
