CALL for ENTRIES: 51st Masur

don’t cut the
CHEESE

I have been telling you for years that I am open to any kind of food at least once. Turns out, I am a liar. When faced with the opportunity to try casu marzu, I just couldn’t do it. I love cheese, but just “no.” So, I will not eat ANY food, but this next Call will take ANY media. Give it a try…

Check out this Call for Entries for the 51st Annual Juried Exhibition from the Masur Museum of Art (Monroe, LA). The entry fee is low, and the show is open to all media. Did I mention that there is no commission on sales? I love the Masur, and I will bet that you will love it too!
