Civic Accepting Art Exhibits for Monon Depot Gallery
Civic Theatre is accepting hanging exhibits for the Lobby of the historic Monon Depot. This lobby space is used for a variety of activities in addition to visual art exhibition space and therefore cannot accommodate 3-D art works.
The purpose of the Monon Depot Gallery is to provide space for works of art of community interest that are appropriate for the diverse range of Civic's patrons and participants. Hopefully, the art will enhance the theatre's entertainment environment. The quality of the work, appropriateness of the exhibit for the multi-use space, and appeal to a broad community audience will be considered before an exhibit is accepted for display.
For more information about the guidelines and possibilities of mounting an exhibit, call 765-423-7529.
Call to US based artists: a call for 2D and 3D submissions from US based artists for group exhibition. Receive deadline is May 5, 2008. One artist from 3 finalists will be awarded a solo show at BECA gallery in New Orleans to open October 4, 2008.
