CALL for ENTRIES: Embracing our Differences 2019

Posted on by R.L. Gibson

hold the SHRIMP

The people with whom I eat most often have lots of food allergies –milk, shellfish, wheat.  So how does a food co-exist with food allergies?  The secret is parallel thinking.  For example, I need to make chili paste for Thai dishes, but my husband is deathly allergic to shellfish.  Who might love Thai food, but naturally wouldn’t eat shrimp?  Vegetarians.  Vegetarian chili paste is made with shiitake mushrooms as the substitute for shrimp. Problem solved.  This next Call is about coexistence, diversity & inclusion on a much larger scale.  Take a look…

deep ROOTS

The benefits of a vegetarian diet are undeniable, but only by most reports, only 3-6% of Americans follow a plant-based diet.  But why?  Volumes have been written expounding on the “why”, but I am just grateful for the ability to make choices –good or bad.  This next Call offers you choices and could be of benefit to you and the venue.  Take a look…

Check out this Call for Entries from Bemis Center for Contemporary Arts (Omaha, NE) for Benefit Art Auction 2018.  Do not be scared off by the words “benefit” and/or “auction”.  I am acutely aware of how often artists are asked to work for nothing.  In this case, you DO NOT have to donate all the proceeds of your work. Evaluate the opportunity…

save a TURKEY

Sweet potato casserole, and I’m done.  Turkey has never been a part of my family’s holiday traditions.  In fact we are so obsessed with sweet potato casserole with a pecan pie top, we really just eat the rest of the meal as an excuse to consume ridiculous amounts of casserole.  It serves as a side dish & dessert then late-night snack.  We until it is gone.  It takes the four of us about 2 days.  I feel the need to put on stretchy pants just thinking about it.  This next Call is a fun turkey project.  Take a look…
