Open Call for Artists by East End Arts

The East End Arts Gallery has announced an open call for artist participation in the upcoming non-juried, all media Annual Members Show scheduled to open with a reception on Friday, January 29 from 5 to 7 p.m. The theme of the show is Out of Your Mind, and the show is open to all artists.

"When inspiration comes from your imagination, your dreams, your emotions, or just from fun playing with form, the results can be quite enchanting,” says East End Arts Gallery Director Jane Kirkwood. “A made up landscape or person, figurative or abstract, is guaranteed to be unique. All members are welcome to bring in one entry for exhibit."

This is a guaranteed opportunity to participate in a group show, with the only requirement being that all artists must be or become a member of East End Arts. The show will run from the opening on January 29 through March 4. The East End Arts Gallery is located at 133 East Main Street in Riverhead.

East End Arts is accepting original works in all media, one entry per artist. All wall art must be wired for hanging. Works can have a maximum dimension of 14 inches wide and 40 inches high, including frame. Weight for wall art must be 10 lbs or less. Sculpture must weigh less than 30 lbs and not measure more than 14 inches wide in any direction, and can be up to 72 inches in height. Poets may enter one poem framed and wired for hanging, frame not exceeding 14 inches wide. Artists are encouraged to enter their work for guaranteed participation in this non-juried show; the only requirement is that artists become a member of East End Arts before or at the time of drop-off.

All media entries must be dropped off in person at the East End Arts Gallery on Thursday, January 21, 22 and 23 from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m. For more information, visit eastendarts.org.
