Themes we are planning to explore included fine art quilts, site-specific installations, contemporary Florida, ethnicity, fiber art, photography, digital arts, or cultural phenomenon.
Proposals should include 20 cohesive images (jpegs), artists c.v. or resume, and an artist’s statement. Copies of reviews, articles, or other submission-supporting materials are also welcome. Please include a self-addressed, stamped envelope for return of materials. Artists who submit may be offered the opportunity to show as part of a curated exhibit.
