Not for profit:

We are seeking art submissions that represent what preservation means to you. Show us how you hold onto this information and why preserving it is important to you. If your piece is selected, you will be contacted via e-mail.

Preservation can take many forms. Maintaining something physical, something digital, a thought, or an emotion. Artists are able to use their material and technology in creative ways to record their experiences and perspectives, and preserve them for future generations. 

What are you trying to preserve? Inspiration or nostalgia? Or maybe you're trying to keep yourself or someone else accountable. Preservation is how we keep a record of things that matter to us most. Preventing loss, feeling lost, and how we return from that. To remember why we are who we are and/or how we got there.
