TITLE: "Paint A Postcard"
With the holiday season slowly inching closer and closer, we decided to create a new, fun, and slightly different exhibition to take us to the end of the year. It's an exhibition that gives participating artists even more benefits, will create unique gifts to buyers, promotes art collecting, connect with the local community, and help develop the Cultural Center's continuing Learning program.
For over a hundred years, postcards the world over have been the archetypal "Hello!" to friends and family – like a text message only more interesting! With "Paint A Postcard" we want you to do exactly what it says – paint, or draw, carve, sketch, photograph, weave, or even knit – a postcard.
If you wish to create a series, or connect your postcards thematically that is fine. And if you'd like to add a story, message, or add a little surprise on the back – please do!
The theme is seasonal / winter / holiday / Christmas, and the only restriction is that is 6" x 4" – postcard size. Aside from that, create whatever you want.
The rules are a little different too. Entry is just $5 per postcard and ALL ENTRIES will be accepted for display in one of the main Cultural Center galleries. Each will be sold for $25, so please price your work accordingly. 100% of sales goes back to the artist and any left over after the holiday will be donated to our local nursing home and gifted to those in care.
PLEASE NOTE your submission to this exhibition assumes your agreement of the above.
