We want this exhibition to celebrate the diverse styles of artists using contemporary interpretations of iconic, images on skateboards in a creative contemporary expressive form, thus broadening the definition of the word “art” and broadening the public’s view of what can be achieved through this venue with new interpretations relevant to today’s society. We do not charge admission, or a field trip fee for area schools. We hope to encourage schools to bring students to see the work and grow their appreciation of the arts in all forms. Please keep subject material and images to “acceptable” for young eyes and minds. Though we want to broaden the interpretation, sexual vulgarity, and/or violent imagery will disqualify the entry for display in this setting. Thank you for your understanding. SUBMISSION OF VISUALS: The exhibition will be chosen from submitted images. Please send Images that show your work clearly. You may show one frontal image and up to two details of each design (we suggest side view be included.) Images submitted should be .tiff and .jpeg files that are mac/pc compatible. We suggest 300 dpi at approximately 4″ x 6″ (4″ should be the shortest side) Label each file with the artist’s name and entry number. Details should be labeled as well with a-b- etc. example: terrimenefee.entry 1(front).jpeg terrimenefee.entry 1 a(side).jpeg Please keep the image itself free of identifying material (artist name etc) CDs will NOT be returned, unless accompanied by a self addressed stamped envelope included for that purpose. NOTIFICATION & DELIVERY: Accepted artists will be contacted via phone and/or email by February 16th, 2009. Work must be delivered to the Artchurch Studio by February 23rd. If your work requires specific hanging instructions, please include those. If you are from the area and would like to help in hanging your own work, please talk with Terri to arrange the best time. We do ask that of any sales (and artwork on display does not have to be for sale) 30% go back to the facility to cover overhead.
