OUR NEXT SHOW - "AMERICANA"
Because this is the 250th Anniversary of the founding of the USA, and because this exhibit will continue to run over the Independence Day holiday, it was decided to have a theme, rather than our Summer Showcase that usually features one or two disciplines of our members. (We will continue the Summer Showcase schedule next year.) The theme for this non-juried exhibit is "Americana". This broad theme celebrating America can feature anything that speaks of Americana to you. Since this show is taking the place of the Showcase, the works do not need to be created in the last 2 years. As long as it speaks to "Americana", it can be an older piece of work.
Rules: As usual, the same rules apply for any of the Library shows. Please make your piece family friendly (it is a library, after all) so no overtly offensive and/or political statements. We're looking for things that celebrate America. All pieces must have hanging wires (no saw tooth hangers) and cannot have glass - only Plexiglas is allowed due to liability issues. Pieces must be marked on the back with Name, Title, Medium, and Price. Since we never know how many works we receive, you can bring more than one.
Dates:
Tuesday, May 26. Email your information (Name, Title, Medium and Price) to Dave Gorden at dezynr@hotmail.com so he can create the wall labels. Text the same information to Pam Sayre at 313.623.0974 or email her at psayre99@gmail.com so she can create the sign in sheet.
Thursday, May 28. Drop your work off at the Centennial Library from 10 to 11 AM. If you are having someone else drop off your work, please let Pam know. Stick around for the hanging if you like. It usually takes an hour or so.
Friday, July 17. Pick up your work at the Library from 10 to 11 AM. If you are having someone else pick up your work, please let Pam know!
As of right now, we are not having any type of reception for the show. That might change to a mid-exhibit or closing reception since the exhibit is running for so long. I will send out an email if we do.
If you have any further questions, please contact Pam via text or email.
Remember, this is a non-juried exhibit so let's see your work that celebrates Americana!
