Manassas Art Guild Seeks Submissions

CALL FOR ARTISTS - EXHIBITS NOW SEEKING SUBMISSIONS

The Manassas Art Guild is seeking artists who would like to exhibit their work in several upcoming art shows. Currently the Guild has openings for three exhibits, taking place this spring and summer. Works in all media, including photography, are eligible for entry.

The first exhibit, eARTh, is on April 23; the theme for this exhibit is artwork which celebrates the natural world (animals, landscapes, recycled art, etc.) In June, the Guild will be hosting a booth at the Manassas Railway Festival; artists are invited to submit work which relates to trains and railways. And in July, the Guild is sponsoring "Remains to be Scene: Artists and Virginia's Historic Places," an exhibit and competition timed to coincide with the events surrounding the 150th anniversary of the Civil War.

A fourth exhibit, the Guild's annual "Paint! Manassas," is being scheduled for the fall; details will be available later this spring.

The deadline to enter the "eARTh" exhibit is April 9, with deadlines for the other exhibits to follow. Artist can find details and entry forms on the Guild's website, www.manassasartguild.org, or call 571/377-1782 to leave a voicemail message.

The Manassas Art Guild is a not-for profit organization which seeks to build and maintain a visible and active visual arts community in Manassas and beyond.
