CALL FOR ARTISTS: MAKING AMERICA

ree

Shoebox Arts is seeking handmade artwork depicting the American flag for an ongoing exhibition.


THE CONCEPT


There's something powerful about our hands creating the flag. This show is about taking back the flag - honoring what America can be through the act of making it ourselves. Your interpretation, your hands, your voice matter.


We'll fill the walls at Shoebox over the next few months and hold community gatherings every 2-3 weeks to bring our friends together around this work.

Subject: The American flag in any interpretive form

Free to submit
