Marking Lives COVID-19

Conceived and launched by Concord-based visual artist Elizabeth Awalt, “Marking Lives COVID 19” is born from a desire to acknowledge and commemorate lives lost in the U.S. to the COVID 19 pandemic. Elizabeth invites artists and community members to make 1,000 marks of any kind to create original artworks. Artworks are digitally documented and shared in a collective social media based tribute to lost loved ones. This creative community project offers healing from our collective grief and trauma together. Once “Marking Lives COVID 19” has “marked” every life lost to COVID in the U.S., it will serve as a memorial to this tragic era, similar to the powerful AIDS Memorial Quilt.

Spectrum Art Award 2022

The Spectrum Art Award is a national competition, created to celebrate the creative excellence of artists on the autistic spectrum. It is open to all UK adults over the age of 18 who identify as being on the autistic spectrum and for work in any medium. Submission is free.

The Award is now open for submissions until 31st July 2021. The award will recognise the achievements of 5 selected finalists equally; each finalist will win £5,000 and an opportunity to have their work exhibited and advanced in its most suitable form. All five will also receive invaluable professional mentoring, curatorial and PR support.

Women's Work

The Indianapolis Art Center announces a Call for Entry to Women’s Work. Women’s Work is a juried exhibition centered on gender and feminist politics. Historically, women have been excluded from the art world, from being kept out of academies and apprenticeships to being woefully underrepresented in galleries and museums today. Along with this, the art skills that were deemed feminine or appropriate for women, such as sewing, embroidery, or weaving, are dismissed as “just” crafts and hobbies. This exhibition, open to women-identified and non-binary artists from the local and national community, seeks to highlight female artists and intersectionality in femininity.

Eligibility:

The project timeline will begin later this summer with final installation in summer of 2022.

Application Deadline: Friday, June 11, 2021 4:30 p.m.
