Marion Cultural Alliance Juried Show Opening – “Pleasures”

Marion Cultural Alliance (MCA) is proud to present our first juried exhibition! This September, let’s step out of the hustle and bustle and explore the simple PLEASURES that inspire us all. As artists, you draw inspiration from profound beauty and simplicity. From the simplicity of sparse lines, intense color, to varying perspectives. It’s the simple elegance of the natural world that defines a simple pleasure. Artists are to create work inspired by the theme PLEASURES.

Deadline to submit is August 15, 2019.

Entry fee is $25 for members and $40 for non-members (price includes membership to MCA). Each artist may submit two (2) pieces for exhibition and judging. All entries are to be submitted no later than August 15 and must be sent via email to Ashley.Justiniano@McaOcala.com. In your email, please include:
• Artist Entry Form (https://mcaocala.com/call-to-artists/)
• Brief Artist Statement
• Photograph of artwork in .jpg file format with a high resolution.

Judge will award Honorable Mentions, Third, Second & First places, and Best of Show which will come with prize dollars for art supplies. Other awards include Community Favorites, MCA Executive Director and Gallery Directors Awards, Board Favorite Awards and a David and Lisa Midgett Purchase Award. Judge’s decisions will be final. Awards will be given at the discretion of the judge and presented at the reception on Friday, September 6, 2019.
