Pattern & Design ǀ Curated by Kristine Schomaker

Pattern has always attracted the eye, whether it be Crazy Quilts, subway tunnels, mosaic floors, wallpaper, fabric, fuzzy lines on TV, or architecture. In this exhibition inspired by Pattern & Design from the 1970s, artists use repetition of line, shape, color, and/or image in their work.  This in person exhibition runs June 23 to July 14, 2024 Entry Deadline: May 31, 2024.

Future of Money Award

The brief:

For this year’s FOM awards, we challenge creative thinkers and makers (of all types) to speculate and create a vision of a National Wealth Service. This is a huge task, so you don’t only need to look at the bigger picture, you could focus on a small core aspect within traditional fnancial services – like digital access or literacy, education in financial principles, coping / managing debt. Or proposing new services that increase meritocratic wealth opportunities or even encouraging philanthropy.  You could propose using a technological tool to povide a solution.  Or envisage a shift in cultural values that changes the impetus that drives wealth creation.
