The Alliance for the Arts is seeking artists to submit their work to Fired Up: A Juried Exhibit. The exhibit will feature works inspired by fire or in some way use flames and heat in their creation, including ceramics, glass and welded pieces.
An entry may consist of 1 to 3 artworks. All entries must be submitted online no later than Aug. 12. Artists can download the prospectus and submit work at www.ArtInLee.org/FiredUp.
This year’s juror is Lee Brotherton. Lee’s fine arts career included serving as an elementary art teacher, art museum work, art gallery manager and sales consultant.
