DAMARISCOTTA — River Arts invites artists to submit work for their upcoming juried show “Artist’s Choice.” Submissions will be accepted until 4 p.m. Saturday, Sept. 21. This show is open to members and nonmembers alike.
The juror will be artist, Alice Kirkpatrick, who earned her BFA in art from Colby College and maintains a studio at her home in Pownal.
Kirkpatrick said, “I am drawn to quiet places that reveal more about the human spirit by their emptiness than those that bustle with human activity. I’m inspired by light, and the power it holds to move us, whether inside our own private spaces, or out in the world.”
“Artist’s Choice” is open to all media including painting, sculpture, fiber, photography and mixed media. Artists may enter two pieces with a size limit of 24 inches (in any direction) including frame. Or artists may enter one larger piece with a size limit of 50 inches including frame.
Entry forms are available at riverartsme.org. For members the entry fee is $15 and for non-members it is $30. Artwork must be delivered in person to the gallery for submission.
“Artist’s Choice”” will run from Sept. 24 through Nov. 9. The opening reception is set for 2-4 p.m. Saturday, Sept. 28, at the gallery located at 36 Elm St.
Gallery hours are 10 a.m. to 4 p.m. Tuesday through Saturday.
