AMPED!!! The Art of Rock & Roll

Amped: The Art of Rock & Roll is an exhibition celebrating the cultural and historical impact of rock and roll, showcasing the
exhilarating synergy between visual art and music while exploring the music’s transformative influence on art.
We are looking for work that captures the rebellious spirit of rock and roll.

Amped is a visual expression of the energy you experience when this music moves through you and ignites a fire in your soul. We challenge you as an artist to capture and amplify that energy. The exhibition is open to all visual media.
