Calls for Work, Auditions & Competitions The following local and national calls for work have recently been announced. If you would like to receive e-mail notification of new competitions and opportunities in the arts, contact news@artscouncilbuffalo.org.
In keeping with our mission to nurture the local economy, the Co-op would like local artists from the community to help us enhance our building. There are many spots in the current design that we have identified as places to add an artists touch - clay tile keystones with fruit and vegetable motifs, the holder for the monument sign. We are sure there are lots more - and we need help identifying them! If you know an artist who could add to our building, please let them know about this opportunity. All artists please email us with your name, contact information, and a brief description outlining your skill or trade (pottery, photography, painting, sculpture, etc) to move@lexington.coop Artists Wanted to Exhibit Work at Local Churches As part of our Community Music, Arts and Wellness Program, North Park Church is initiating a cooperative program between churches and artists. For centuries the church was a primary supporter of the arts. Many churches today have prominent areas to beautifully display an artist's work. This sharing of space and art benefits you by providing exhibition space which is seen by many people each week. The arrangement benefits the church by providing points of interest within the church and exposure to an artist's work they may not see otherwise. If you, or someone you know, would like to exhibit your art in a local church, please call Melissa Foster, North Park Church, at (716) 838-2150 for more information. Articulate, Inc. Seeks Art for Greeting Cards Articulate Ink is a new company dedicated to the promotion and purchase of fine arts through greeting cards. If greeting card customers wish to purchase the art featured on the card they may do so from our website. The website address is indicated on the back of each card. The majority of the revenue goes back to the artists. We are currently looking for original works of art to feature on our greeting cards as well as on our web site. All forms of art are welcome.
