Call for Art Submission Criteria for the…
Shake It Up August Art Exhibition
Submission dates: May 7th, 2025- July 23rd, 2025
Best in Show: $500
Gold: $300
Silver: $200
Artists shake up the way people see and experience the world. Whether it’s showing us sublime beauty in the midst of so much else, or tearing things apart that we thought to be permanent. Generally speaking, artists disrupt convention.
The Petersburg Area Art League is calling on artists to submit works of art that “Shake things up”. Feel free to challenge our perspectives and interpret this theme as you see fit.
All art media (painting, drawing, 3-D works, textiles, video, mixed media, etc.) are welcome, as our gallery space and accommodations will allow.
Submissions will be juried and due at PAAL no later than July 23rd at 5:00pm for consideration for the August show. Opening is August 8th at 6:00pm.
Artists that have pieces meeting the requirements are necessary, a limited number of artistic works will be selected for this exhibition due to space restrictions. We encourage artists to submit their best works for consideration as early as possible for this reason.
