Calls for Artists

Southern Coos Hospital & Health Center Quarterly Art Show
Call to Artists October 2018
Delivery of Art: Wednesday, October 3, 2018 2 p.m

“Shanties, Shacks, & Other Structures”

The Southern Coos Hospital & Health Center will host a show of artworks created depicting buildings of all sorts—shanties, shacks, barns, bridges and warehouses. All structural things man-made are subjects for the artist’s consideration.

Artists may enter 1-3 pieces using painting, collage, mixed media, drawing, photography or assemblage in all artistic styles: representational, abstract, or futuristic. All works must be able to be hung on the wall. This show runs October through December 2018.

As usual you can be creative in your interpretation of the theme, keeping in mind that art on the hospital walls is meant to entertain and de-stress the patients, families, staff, and general visitors. It is not a venue for nudity, violence, morbidity, or as a political soapbox. Thank you for your continued positive approach to art in these shows.

Show Calendar:  Show runs October, November, and December 2018

Reception:  Sunday, October 7, 2018 1:00 – 3:00 p.m.

Delivery of Art:  Wednesday, October 3, 2018 2 p.m.

Bring ready-to-hang art plus paperwork to the SCHHC, Bandon.

See you there!
