Open Call: Community Arts Program
The Milwaukee Artist Resource Network (MARN) is pleased to announce a Call for Art for our Community Arts Program (CAP) exhibition at O’Neil, Cannon, Hollman, DeJong, & Laing S.C. law firm at 111 E Wisconsin Ave, Milwaukee WI 53202. This exhibition is set to run from July 18, 2023-July 16, 2023.
The mission of the CAP program is to serve as a liaison between our MARN members and corporate initiatives by taking on projects such as art curation, purchasing, and installation within borrower and employee spaces. Facilitating these projects allows our partner businesses the benefit of enjoying original local artwork on a day-to-day basis as well as offering greater exposure and potential future sales for our member artists.
Applicants must be MARN CREATIVE STUDENT, CREATIVE or CREATIVE BUSINESS Members in good standing before the call closes to qualify.
MARN seeks members to submit up to 5 works for consideration. We are seeking vibrant works that are colorful and energetic. Themes may include but are not limited to: index, documentation, fine details, micro and macro, history, interpretations, observation, past/present/future, greater picture, nearsighted-farsighted, reflection/revisit, curiosity, and the study of life. We are looking for large scale, wall hung works; no smaller than 2ft in any direction and no larger than 7ft tall. 2D works are recommended, however relief works with depth of 2ft or less will be considered. Submissions should consist of work that is ready to hang and/or install within a week of the selection notification.
Submit the aforementioned items online here by May 31, 2023 at 11:59PM CDT.
SUBMISSION DEADLINE: Wednesday, May 31, 2023 at 11:59PM CDT
