91原创 Arts Council (LAC) is putting out the call for artists, writers, dancers, and actors to reflect on the past and move ahead for their new exhibition.
鈥楲ooking Back, and Moving Forward,鈥� a brick and mortar exhibition, is all about reflection and creating a safe space for all B.C. artists to reflect and share their stories in regards to the ongoing pandemic.
The dates will be April 2nd to May 12th, with the submission deadline falling on March 14.
Claire Sarfeld, LAC鈥檚 gallery director, explained that this will be an in-person exhibition, 2D and 3D works that will be on display at the Aldergrove Kinsmen Community Centre 鈥楳ain Hall鈥� Gallery or 鈥楩oyer Gallery.鈥�
All works submitted to this call will have to shipped/delivered to the AKCC after being accepted.
2D works must also be ready to hang, and 2D and 3D works must be for sale.
Artworks must remain hung for the duration of the show.
An artist contract will be sent out to the artists once they have been accepted into the exhibition with more detailed information about drop off dates and times.
Interested participants can submit their artwork to Sarfeld at galleries@langleyarts.ca.
