Call for Entries

Open Call for Lancaster and nearby Area Artists

Exhibit title: Not your Mother’s Barn!

Exhibit Place: Mulberry Art Studios
21 N Mulberry Street
Lancaster PA 17603

Exhibit Dates: June 5-28, 2008
Reception Date: First Friday June 6th 5-8pm

Wall art of any medium referencing a barn is welcome-whether traditional, humorous, contemporary, abstracted or your special version. The barn theme unites the rural nature of Lancaster and the Barnstormers baseball team.

The curators of this show decided to be pro active and cull a selection of Lancaster County (and nearby) art to aid the Lancaster Convention Center (LCC) art search. The art should be presentable for guest room walls in the hotel/convention center. There is no promise that any art will be selected. The goal of this grass roots effort is to show the exceptional home grown artistic talent surrounding the LCC. Phrases like “sustainability within communities” are buzzing around. Let’s make it happen in the Lancaster visual art sector, too.

Entries. Size unrestricted, but must fit through standard door opening. All pieces must be wired suitable for hanging. No media restrictions other than no sharp edges.

Fee: $5.00 per piece paid upon delivery. (Money used to fund the reception.)

Deadline to confirm your participation (for publicity purposes only): February 1, 2008
However, participation is still open after that, up to delivery dates.

Delivery dates: May 31 and June 2 from10-11:30am
Hand delivery and pick up only, no shipping. Attach hang tag to art that includes artist’s name, title, dimensions, medium and retail price that allows 35% commission to Mulberry Art Studios.

Pick up dates: June 28 and June 30 from10-11:30am. Contact Ellen for other date/time.
