Calls for Artists

Please see below for our current artist calls.

Call for Artists: Digital Art


Center for the Arts is seeking video/digital media art to be displayed on LED monitors located throughout The Center Campus. Selected artwork will run on a continual loop during business hours. This call is open to all artists working in digital arts including video, photography and graphic design. The four LED monitors are visible to the public in the Theater and Glenwood lobbies, the main entrances on campus. Up to four artists will be selected and each artist’s work will be presented on its own for a period of four months on a daily basis. Selected artists will receive a $300 honorarium.

Proposal details:
Artwork is intended to be experienced and enjoyed by the many diverse people that visit The Center Campus for events and classes, including children of all ages. Due to the transitory nature of the audience, works less than 5 minutes in length are preferable. All rights of artwork remain property of the artist. Each artist may submit one entry or a series for consideration. The Center Selections Committee will review submissions based upon artistic merit. Artworks should be innovative, engaging, and celebrate imagination and creativity through an artistic lens. Sound is optional and will be occasionally turned off, as needed, during events.

Deadline:
April 15, 2023

Timeline:
April 15, 2023 - Submissions due
April 17 - Selections Committee reviews submissions and makes final selection
April 20 - Selected artists notified
May 1-5 - Artwork is installed on digital monitors
