CALL FOR ART!!! Life is full of the UNEXPECTED! Due to unavoidable and understandable reasons for one of our much-loved partners, we have to pivot in our upcoming exhibition schedule. In true Mulberry Cultural Center fashion, we are inspired and want to share an opportunity for you!
Show us your UNEXPECTED masterpieces! The Mulberry Cultural Center is now accepting submissions for “Unexpected”. Life rarely follows a straight line. Plans change, surprises appear, ideas take strange turns, and sometimes the most interesting things happen when we least expect them.
Artists are encouraged to interpret the theme broadly. Works may explore personal turning points, chance encounters, unusual perspectives, unexpected outcomes, experimental processes, unconventional materials, or anything that embraces the strange beauty of the unforeseen.
All mediums are accepted. Traditional and nontraditional approaches are welcome.
Artists may submit up to five entries.
Submission Deadline: Sunday, September 27 at 11:59 p.m.
Entry Fee: Free
We invite artists to surprise us with the UNEXPECTED!
