The Estevan Arts Council’s (EAC) annual adjudicated art show is still several months away, but the organization has already issued a call for submissions.
The Adjudicated Art Show will be held at the Estevan Art Gallery and Museum from November 5 to December 16.
Emerging painters, photographers, weavers, sculptors and producers of other forms of two-dimensional and three-dimensional art are encouraged to enter the show. They must submit five entries, all pertaining to the same theme. The artwork must have been completed in the last three years.
Diana Chisholm, who is the EAC’s artist-in-residence, has been chosen as the adjudicator for this year. She will evaluate the works during the day on November 10, and then speak on the entries during a public reception that night. She will also announce the top entries of the art show during the reception.
Chisholm will choose at least one artist to apply for a touring exhibit through the Organization of Saskatchewan Arts Councils (OSAC). In previous years, local artists have been selected to have their works tour the province through OSAC.
She will also lead a workshop on November 12. The topic will be announced at a later date.
Brochures and entry forms for the art show are available at the Estevan Arts Council office and at the Estevan Art Gallery and Museum.
The deadline for registration is October 21.
