CALL for ENTRIES: Thanks Anyway

Click to subscribe to www.ArtAndArtDeadlines.com by Email!CRAZY for BISCUITS

I am grateful that I never have to attempt making biscuits again.  I went to cooking school for a year, and it was popular to characterize the pastry folk, and anyone who made bakery goods as a little wacky.  The popular theory was they snorted too much flour.  However, I found this characterization an easy rationalization for why I can’t make biscuits –clearly, I am too sane to master the task.  Luckily, my crazy mother taught my crazy husband how to make biscuits, and I don’t ever have to do it again. This Call wants to know what makes you feel gratitude.  I’d be grateful for a glass of artisan wine right now…

Check out this Call for Entries from Tin Barn Vineyards (Sonoma, CA) for Thanks Anyway: A Photographic Exploration of Gratitude.  The entry fee is low, and holidays are a great opportunity for art sales.  Take a look…

*Editor’s Note:  This is a winery, not a gallery, and it is their first attempt at a show.   Please, don’t scare them off by being high-maintenance artists.  Be patient and kind, and GRATEFUL.  Plus, this is a benefit show in which you ARE NOT being asked to DONATE your work.  GRATEFUL, please.
