      NATIONAL SF BAY AREA F.A.Q.
 
** CLOSED call ** Call for Entries (SF Bay Area)

Market Street Gallery (San Francisco) is calling for San Francisco Bay Area people for a show coming up in October 2010 so the show happens just before the November election. This is an opportunity to get your artwork into a premier gallery in San Francisco.  It is not a requirement to be a "professional" artist. Please review the information below and follow the instructions carefully.


"PALIN"


We would like to see your visual interpretation of the word "Palin" in an original art piece of any medium (see guidelines below for more information). There is no right or wrong interpretation; we just want to see what you and others around the US come up with. Our objective is to get a visual map of the US from an artist perspective/reaction on the word "Palin", so be creative allow your emotions drive your creation and submit your most powerful/meaningful piece(s).

We will accept up 15 pieces to be displayed in the show and list the artist's name on our website with special "SF Bay Area" mention. SF Bay Area Artists who are accepted are required to be at the opening reception; it will be an energetic and fun party. Our objective is to compare & contrast the local response with the national response to the word "Palin".

Submission deadline has been extended to July 31, 2010. The show is scheduled for October 2010. Only submissions postmarked before July 31, 2010 will be accepted in the show.
