CALL for PROPOSALS: Future Framers FEAST

Posted on by R.L. Gibson

Learn more about the 2017 Future Framers FEAST from VisArts!red, yellow or green FRUIT

I’m up to my eyeballs in tomatoes.  I’m not a morning person, so I don’t always get to the farmers market early.  So, I often have a smaller number of locally-grown options, but this time of year there are always tomatoes — sliced tomatoes, tomato pie, tomato sauce, tomato soup & even sun-dried tomatoes.  This next Call boasts a locally-grown & produced meal as the bonus to possible project funding.  Take a look…

Check out this Call for Proposals from VisArts (Rockville, MD) for Funding Emerging Art with Sustainable Tactics (F.E.A.S.T.), a public meal designed to use community-driven financial support to democratically fund projects that use art & creative thinking to impact the community. Have a project that needs funding?

Learn more about the 2018 Solo Exhibit opportunity from VisArts!one BOWL at a time

While giving a seminar on pricing artwork last week, someone asked me who AAAD’s readers are.  “Foodie artists, I suppose” to which she replied, “I like to eat, does that count?”.  Of course it does.  I’ve had days, weeks & months that I have unintentionally boycotted cooking, recipes or any ingredient more complicated than cereal.  Seriously, folks, just eat.  Sometimes you can, sometimes you can’t –both art & food.  If your art is ready, this next Call is a great next step…

Check out this Call for Proposals from VisArts (Rockville, MD) for 2018 Solo Exhibits at the Gibbs Street Gallery.  There is a 2nd venue restricted to mid-Atlantic as well.  For those of you ready to take this step, this is a well-sized venue for a solo exhibit.  Take a look…

BENEDICT

I don’t share well.  I never have.  I like to believe it is an only-child-thing, but I’ll stab your hand with a fork if you get too close to my plate during some dishes–Eggs Benedict, for example.  Just ask my kid; it doesn’t leave marks, but apparently it is memorable, ha.  Regarding this next Call, I need you to be generous and share.  I hope this Call is just the opportunity YOU want.  But if it isn’t, please share it far and wide so that this dream doesn’t go unrealized for someone out there.  Take a look…
