SINFUL CHOCOLATE

Food legends abound.  Every time I think I have heard them all, another creeps us.  Did you know s’mores are meant to curb sexual desire?  Well, kind of.  Sylvester Graham, the inventor of the graham cracker, was a minister that created an entire lifestyle including the consumption of this self-proclaimed “bland” graham crackers as a way to control wild sexual urges.  We’re thinking he wouldn’t approve of the debauchery that is marshmallow and chocolate though.  This next Call wants your best work surrounding a legend.  Fun theme with an IMMINENT DEADLINE…

Folktales & Legends

 

Folktales and legends blur fact and fiction; seeded in the truth, they grow into stories both fantastical and far-fetched. Whether written, spoken, or communicated visually, folktales represent cultures throughout the world. FOLKTALES & LEGENDS will explore the capacity of visual art to convey such epic narratives.

ELIGIBILITY: Open to all artists

MEDIA:  2 or 3 dimensional work inspired by a folktale or legend. The source narrative may be traditional or of your own creation. Dimensions may not exceed 12″ x 12″ x 12″.

ENTRY FEE:
None

JURORS:  Artists Dennis McNett (TX) and Joseph Velasquez (WI) use printmaking to tell stories through images. This summer, they will create larger-than-life Connecting Communities projects based on an original folktale inspired by Sheboygan culture and Wisconsin folklore.

SALES:  The Arts Center will retain 25% commission if your work is sold. You will be paid 75% of the retail price for sold works within 45 days of the close of the exhibition. Please price your work accordingly
