Call For Art: Advent Art Show
This Advent season the Gallery will host a very special show entitled, “We Wait,” featuring work made by you -- the people of Coram Deo.
As the Summer comes to an end and Fall begins, we invite you to begin meditating on the Advent season in hopes that you are inspired to create visual art, poetry, or original music. Works shared in the advent show can reflect any themes related to the Advent season: faith, hope, birth, promises kept, the nativity, light in darkness, peace, etc.
We ask that each person submit no more than two pieces for display. All works can be dropped off at the Coram Deo offices between Nov. 6 – Nov. 13, 2022.
The opening for “We Wait” will be Friday, November 18, 2022 from 6-8 pm in the Gallery.
Q&A
Do I have to be good at art or an “artist” to participate?
No! We’re not holding a contest for who can create the best art. This show is simply an invitation to interact with scripture and Advent in a new way and to share your creations with your church family.
Can kids participate?
Absolutely—all ages are welcome!
What types of art are accepted:
2-D as well as 3-D. If your work is unusually large or requires special presentation, music that would be performed live or poetry to be read, please contact Cheryl Dyer (cheryl@cheryldyer.com) to inquire about how these could be presented during the show.
Will work be insured during the show?
If your work is of professional caliber and you’d like to indicate a value for insurance purposes, you’re more than welcome do so when you drop off your work. A form will be provided for this purpose.
When should I have my art work submitted?
All artwork should be submitted between November 6 - 13, 2022.
Will all work submitted be displayed? This art show is not juried, so Yes! Maybe. Our hope is that we have room to show all work submitted, but if the response to this call for art is so large that we cannot accommodate all the pieces in the gallery we will need to choose which pieces will be displayed.
