From August 1, 2021 to February 28, 2022, the 2021 Iowa Artists 50th Anniversary 2.021 Traveling Exhibit will be traveling around Iowa to 5 of our partnering art galleries/museums. We have a special art call for this exhibit. All attachments can be found below. You can print off the entry form, fill it out and either email it to Deanna Skokan at fineart@deannaskokan.com or snail mail it to Iowa Artists, 35115 Burgundy Circle, Waukee, IA 50263 along with pictures of your entries. (Frames may be in the pictures.) Just be sure if you are snail mailing your pictures and form to allow plenty of time for receipt of it before the May 21st deadline.
The traveling exhibit is running concurrent to some of the regional shows. The first day to enter is Saturday, March 20, 2021. The deadline is midnight on Friday, May 21, 2021. Our judge, Barb Vaske, will choose 25-30 artworks which give a good representation of our membership and the variety of mediums used. Artists with accepted artworks will be notified by June 5, 2021, and will need to submit a bio and artist’s statement.
Artists who are accepted into the traveling show will receive a certificate for being a part of our anniversary celebration. Artworks may be sold at the participating galleries unless marked NFS (not for sale), but they must remain with the traveling exhibit from beginning to end. Some galleries take a commission, so please read the Gallery Packet for more information regarding pricing and sale of artwork.
Entries must have been your own original creations (see prospectus for further rules) within the past 2 years. You may enter only 2 artworks. If you entered a piece of art in the regional shows for this year, 2021, and it does not win 1st, 2nd, 3rd, or Honorable Mention, you MAY also enter it into this special art call for the Traveling Exhibit. If it did win, however, you MAY NOT enter it. We want to show off our members’ beautiful art to the rest of Iowa.
Some galleries will be having receptions. We encourage all our members to come visit and view the traveling exhibit. All of our partnering galleries will be advertising and posting on social media, so please share their posts with friends and family!
Please read through the attached Gallery Packet, Entry Form and Prospectus/Rules. If you have any further questions, please contact Danna Fruetel (dfruetel@gmail.com) or Deanna Skokan (fineart@deannaskokan.com).
Please enter soon and help us make 2021 a special year of art! After all – it’s our 50th Anniversary!
