A call for art submissions is being made for an exhibit planned for the Washington County Historic Courthouse, which will be at the courthouse June 4 through Jan. 8, 2023.
The exhibit, called ‘Through the Eyes of Others: Art in Washington County,’ will be juried and curated by Megan Arney Johnston, and artists may submit up to three pieces.
The exhibits rules and eligibility are: the contest is open to all residents of Washington County; artists must complete the Open Call Submission Form and include images of artwork to be considered; artists may submit up to three digital images of artwork; submit work that generally falls into the following categories: People, Architecture, Parks & Nature, Historic Sites, and Artists Under 18; media may include sculpture, photography, painting, ceramics, drawing, prints, and video; include your name, address, phone number, and email along with an art list of the works submitted, including title, year, medium, price, dimensions and image number.
By looking at other people, places, and spaces, especially the natural environment, viewers can see differently and think differently.
Call for artists is up until May 1. Work will be selected by mid-May, and artists will be asked to deliver the selected items to the courthouse by May 29 for installation.
For questions email historiccourthouse@co.washington.mn.us.
Entry fee is $10 per entry, and proceeds will benefit the Historic Courthouse Restoration Fund.
