What does the word HOPE mean to you?

We are kicking off 2021 with a new Open Call with the theme “Hope”. With the start of a new year and fresh optimism, we want to offer creatives from across all disciplines a chance to share a body of work that they feel represents this new theme.

The word hope can mean and be interpreted in many ways and we are excited to see how you all incorporate this within your own work.

This could be related to seeing family and friends, the new vaccine and the end of what has been a turmoil time with Covid-19, climate change, new presidency and hope for a better year personally, professionally and/or mentally.

The Open Call will run from 4th January - 25th January 2021 and we encourage all artists to submit including; creative writers, poets, photographers, painters etc. Our aim is always to try showcase as many artists from various disciplines and backgrounds with a keen eye on emerging talent and students.
