Call for Entries 2012
It’s that time of the year again, where the Touched By Fire art show and sale ask for artists to submit their entries for their annual show. The deadline for your submissions is Friday September 7, at 5pm.
The Touched By Fire show and sale, “the art show you have to be crazy to enter,†is an exhibition showcasing the best works submitted by artists with mood disorders.
Hundreds of submissions will be juried down to sixty or so truly outstanding works. The goal is to have an exhibition any artist would be proud to be a part of. This years show will be on Thursday November 15.
Jeff Jackson created the artwork for the Touched by Fire campaign…thank you to Paul Grissom.
