Make Me Famous

Have you ever wanted to be on the cover of the Rolling Stone?  Have you ever wanted your face on the side of a bus?  Maybe just a sandwich named after you?  Me too.

Would you settle for just having your artwork on a billboard?  Yep, Me too.  Here’s a great call for Entries for the Annual Embracing our Differences Exhibit in Sarasota, Florida.  And in addition to possibly getting your artwork on a billboard…don’t forget there is NO ENTRY FEE!

Embracing Our Differences invites artists, photographers, professionals, amateurs, teachers and students to participate in its 8th annual visual art exhibit celebrating diversity.

National and international submissions are encouraged. 

What a Wonderful Bunch by Manjul Rathee45 artists will be selected for the exhibit. 

The Embracing Our Differences exhibit will be displayed throughout the months of April and May 2011 at Island Park along Sarasota’s beautiful bayfront.

Since 2004, the exhibit has been viewed by more than 850,000 visitors. The exhibit will contain 39 billboard-sized (16 feet wide by 12 1/2 feet high) images of the selected artworks. In the judges’ discretion, an additional six “honorable mention” selections may be made.

Final selections will be chosen based on artistic excellence in reflection of the theme “Embracing Our Differences.”  The art-work will also be evaluated on how effectively it will read outdoors when enlarged to billboard size – 16 feet wide by 12 1/2 feet high.

Artists are encouraged to use bold saturated colors and strong lines.

Spread the Love by Rodney HarveyFinal selections will be made by a 3-judge panel of professional artists, curators and art professionals.

A total of $3,000.00 in awards will be presented.

Deadline for submission is January 10, 2011.

There is no submission fee nor limit on the number of entries.
