God's first self-expression to human beings was to create. Then, he gifted and instructed us to do the same with the mediums he provided. Art, in so many forms, is a joy and an expression, but it is so much more. It reverberates in the soul; it connects us to the Designer; it invigorates the intellect, creaturely emotions, and the whole person. God did all of this on purpose, and gave you your abilities that they might flourish in you. So, THANK YOU! And never forget that there is nobility and significance to your unique giftedness. So, THANK GOD!
Criteria for Submissions:
For The Gallery, art must be a minimum of 16" x 20" (either vertical or horizontal). This includes photographs—resolution must be high enough to be crisp. Large pieces are certainly welcome and encouraged. Framed art is acceptable, but note that very heavy frames cannot be supported by the hanging system. Up to three pieces can be submitted per artist. If selected, no art can be hung unless it is mounted or framed. Final art submitted loose or rolled up in a tube cannot be included.
For Mini Masters (the children's art exhibit), art can be of various sizes, but must be unframed, and fit within a 10" x 12.5", 18" x 13", or 16" x 20" space. The art can be smaller, but not bigger. Canvas may used as a medium, but it must be flat (in other words, NOT on a wrapped and/or stretched frame). Up to three pieces can be submitted per artist.
All art will be on display for one year.
Submission Deadline: August 9th at Midnight
Art Show: August 28 6pm - 8pm
