CALL for ENTRIES: Embracing our Differences 2020

Posted on by R.L. Gibson

Learn more about the Embracing our Differences 2020 Call from Coexistence!

KALE yeah!

How many kale lovers are among you?  I read an article recently that suggested that so many people dislike kale because of its bitterness that there are varieties being bred to tame the flavor.  Apparently people want to like kale but don’t know how.  Tell me that’s not a metaphor for the divisive nature of politics in the world today. Wow.  

I’ve made my peace with kale.  I found a balance that allows the bitter to be a complement to my diet.  I get the health benefit, the flavor, and the value of cheap-but-trendy green veg.  I have not, however, made my peace with the politics of hate.  We can co-exist, but that requires embracing our differences, and that is among the reasons I promote the Embracing our Differences call each year.  If you’ve ever entertained the idea of adding public art to your resume, here’s an opportunity.  The theme is open to really wide interpretation.  You only need to take a look at their gallery of previous winners to understand that Coexistence is truly looking for YOUR point of view.  It could be your work that opens the eyes of someone that sees this exhibit.  Take the time to do you homework.  Is this exhibit for you?

Check out the Call for Entries for the Annual Embracing our Differences 2020 Exhibit in Sarasota, FL. Your work on a billboard, no entry fee & $3000 in awards. Plus, this is a great way to try on public art for size. Don’t miss this opportunity…

I ate broccoli at dinner last night. *yawn*  Did you know there are approximately 30,000 edible plants on this planet?  Did you also know that a mere 50 crops make up 90% of the calories consumed?  How did we get so boring?  Diversity is the best part of eating and cooking and consuming (and being for that matter) even if I do forget that when shopping some days.  This next Call is another excellent way to celebrate diversity.  Take a look…
