Open Wall exhibit opportunity at ArtSpace/Lima
AUG 22 MEDIA RELEASE__ArtSpace, 65 Town Square, Lima, is excited to introduce its 2nd 'Open Wall' event, offering a unique opportunity for emerging artists to exhibit their work in a professional gallery setting.
Inspired by the brave act of a freelance artist who smuggled his painting into the Pinakothek der Moderne in Munich, ArtSpace aims to provide a legitimate platform for artists seeking to share their creativity with
the public.
INTAKE
This is a 'first come, first served' entry, and the first 20 artists entering their work will be able to exhibit in the galleries. Dates for accepting work are September 10, 11, 12 and 13. The gallery space is ‘first come, first served’, ensuring an equal opportunity for all artists to participate. Any medium is welcomed. It is a fantastic chance for new artists to gain exposure and experience the thrill of seeing their work displayed in a professional setting.
EXHIBIT
Opening Reception: September 20, 6:30 -8:00 p.m.
Exhibition dates: September 20-October 25
This initiative is designed to foster artistic expression and community engagement, much like the popular 'open mic' events for performers. ArtSpace is thrilled to offer this platform to artists who have never had the chance to exhibit their work in a gallery. The 'Open Wall' event is all about giving emerging artists a space to shine and be seen by the community, alongside established works of art.
For further information about this exhibit or other ArtSpace/Lima programs, please call Sally Windle, Executive Director, at ArtSpace/Lima 419-222-1721.
